COHERENCE [2013]

Coherence is a pretty damned fun shoestring budget sci-fi/suspense film from writer/director James Ward Byrkit.
The less you know about the film the better it is, so all I can tell you is that there's a dinner party, a comet and glowsticks.
All of the dialogue is improvised so it gets a little wonky at times but for the most the actors do a fine job at producing a frightening sense of realism.  Things start getting creepy and the whole scenario spirals into a delightful craziness that jangles the nerves.  Not everything makes sense, so if you're looking for answers you'll lose half the fun of it but if it's unique entertainment you're after then you'll find it in this spooky Outer Limits-esque yarn.
