Fantastic debut from Addison. Deeply personal and a sensitive subject matter handled with such honestly. And it's a horror movie too! Amazing balance between empathy and frights.

I watched this with a friend of mine who used to have some mental issues before he got on medicine, and he said this movie really hit home for him.

This movie is very sad at times. You feel so bad for what the main character is going through. This is definitely more drama than horror....it has very very little horror IMO, but is well done and very well acted, especially by the main character.

7/10 - Recommended if in the mood for something different.

I caught a screening of this during SWSW. Without giving away any spoilers, let's just say that this is absolutely nothing we haven't already seen before. The storyline seems to have borrowed pieces of concepts from previous films (who did it better). To me, Hypochondriac seemed poorly executed. The concept was overdone. The writing was weak. It's small budget was glaringly evident. And most of all, some characters felt miscast, most notably the film's main character Will, played by Zach Villa. Villa just did not have the intensity required to pull off his character, his acting came off as amateur and ultimately non-believable (even sometimes unintentionally funny). The film had some moments, but unfortunately, that's about it. It could have had more potential, but the uninspired casting and general execution makes this a "skip it". - HK.
