No, she had completed the film and then the studio fired her and edited the s h i t out of her cut and removed major plot elements. What was left is what exists today on DVD copies. Studios do that s h i t all the time. I'd love to see her original cut. Fortunately, she learned her lesson and had complete creative control over her latest film, The Invitation, which is excellent.

Nah, it was a good movie. Much better than most of the other movies they make these days (as well as back in early 2000s).

You can't blame the sci-fi/hallmark channel quality of the production on editing. Literally where did all the money go?

I think it's a brilliant movie as it is! I'd REALLY like to see it uncut!!

I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!
