After a bizarre incident, a doctor tries to help a psychiatrist uncover what happened that involves her experiences with a client that she believes has a rare form of multiple personality disorder that needs to be treated only to turn into a race to save him from other forces trying to rob him of his body.

This was a highly enjoyable and likable effort with plenty going for it. One of the better aspects here is the solid and engrossing setup that brings about a rather fun time here with setting everything up. The main setup here involving the flashbacks to what came before including the bizarre therapy session that sets everything up, the growing obsession with maintaining the relationship despite all the warning signs there being to leave, and the exposition that we get diving into the medical condition he suffers from that drags her into this massive conspiracy about the body and consciousness transferring between each other that gives this a fantastic starting point to everything. That creates a strong second half that delves nicely into the discovery of the condition that has been explored. The use of soul transference and body swapping being the root of everything happening is explained nicely through the occult rituals that are put into practice creating a fine framework for exploring how the actual process works. This gets physically explored in the graphic scenes with everything taking place as the two share violent seizure-like symptoms to switch places and take over the bodies of the other that gets quite interesting with the kinky sexual role play that gets brought up as a means to show the change in personality that's taken place. It all gets brought together in the wild finale where the full context of the body-swapping has meaning and results in the series of wild confrontations that take place within the confines of the mental facility and lead to some really fun confrontations with some graphic outcomes that are in place here. As the situation escalates, though, it soon becomes apparent that the whole thing is way more confusing than it really should be which is the main drawback to this one. Since there are only brief glimpses about the nature of the possession, how it works, and the manner in which they're possessed, it all tends to make the film feel more confusing than it needs to try to balance the concept at play here. Without any kind of tick as to how to differentiate what's going on or who's in what body, this can be a bit of a struggle at times to keep it straight which ends up being the main issue holding it down.

No pun intended - Joe Lynch knows what he did here. And make no mistake about it, so do the actors and the movie itself. Yes the movie as an entity. Now you may not like what you get served here. But the movie stays true to its origins and the people it admires - Roger Corman would be proud of this for sure. Or he may be proud if he is able to watch this.

Will you be proud watching it? Your moral compass and your ability to watch people getting it on on screen (plus how you can handle blood and violence, though you should be expecting the latter for sure) will inform that. There are scenes that seem to go on for a long time. And Heather is back in form - she came ... to deliver! And coming ... I mean delivering she does! Quite a lot ... like sometimes many times at once! Innuendo? Never heard of it.

All kidding aside, the story is predictable, certain things seem badly acted .. but it is all part of the game ... as is all the blood that is going to be spilled ... the obvious aside for a second though: another thing I liked about the movie! The role reversal - some may even call it the w word ... ok(e) - you get it I am certain of it. Jonathan Schaech who is amazing has a thankless role of sorts.... A role usually being played by the (female) love interest .. you see what I did here? Well actually the movie is the one who did it (and Heather! She did it a lot ... have I mentioned that already?) ... Joe pre-emptively said that people will go on (add a different site that is famous for reviews here) and write something evil about his movie .. that may be the case, but I know that most actually liked the movie at Frighfest ...

Quick review: I wanted to like this film so much. It hurt me that I didn't enjoy it. To be fair it wasn't really my kind of film to begin with. I should've known better than to get my hopes up.

The story just never gripped me. It was too lazy and wildly unrealistic. There's also some real B-grade acting which was quite distracting. A lot of characters just feel like their lines are being read off a prompter.

The ending gets crazy and tries to make up some lost ground, but I had already checked out by that point. The film is also very erotic, however it's also very cut and paste with all of those scenes. This one wasn't for me. 3/10.
