I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Just perfect...

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

The story itself was a great idea but the execution left something to be desired. The acting was better than I expected, however some of the acting, primarily by the young couple/bullies, was so bad it actually distracted from the better acting. Some scenes were well written while other weren't as much and many scenes seemed rushed and left you wanted more. While there was a nice unexpected twist, I must say the end was so stupid, it almost ruined the movie. It was so cheesy and low, low budget special effects. The ending (red zone) is what made me give it a 4 instead of a 5. Although I wouldn't really recommend the movie, I wouldn't completely discount it either.

Don't Waste Your Life on this crap. Me and my wife wanted to see some scary movie on Saturday evening but this was a bad choice. No thrill at all! The story could be good if someone in this film crew knew what to do with it. It looks like a bunch of students took camera and made a movie for homework. Only the intro has something interesting. Don't waste a dollar on it! Going into this film, I thought the trailer looked good enough to entice me to watch this film. Then again, most trailers look good. But when you get to the actual movie, sometimes the trailer can be an open door to a bad movie. "Respire" is NOT a film worth checking out, even if your interested in an entertaining low-budget supernatural film.

Budget and limited thespians weigh down this otherwise very entertaining supernatural chiller.A young woman suffers from a terminal disease. During the course of her work, she meets a man who asks her to auction a mysterious box for him. When she takes the box home, she opens it and literally breathes new life into herself....with dire consequences.Tracy Teague is a one-expression actress and has a tough time carrying the movie the whole way through. Fortunately, a cast of interesting supporting characters keep us on out toes, and the director definitely knows how to keep the pace going.Except for a couple of murders and the climactic carnage, the movie is short on grue but high on suspense. Budget restrictions does show, especially in the ending, but it never looks cheap. Although the twists are predictable, I found myself smoking only 1 cigarette throughout, which is my own barometer for good entertainment. Recommended.

I really enjoyed this film. Respire has a great mix of mystery, suspense and horror. There are some very memorable scenes with outstanding atmosphere. The director did a great job of covering the large scope of the film without the large budget. There are some great moments in Respire that caused me to jumped from my chair. On the negative, a few lines in the script felt a bit "wordy" as if the actors are trying to explain too much to the audience. I also feel some of the character's actions are a little too predictable, but overall the film is more surprising than many big budget Hollywood movies. I am looking forward to checking out some of David Cross's other films. I say go ahead throw Respire in the DVD player late one night, sit back, and enjoy the movie.
