At least age the girl a little bit after 17 years!

It's supposed to be 17 years later from when she was in college, but they didn't do anything to age the actress to have her look like someone in their mid to late 30's after nearly 2 decades have gone by. She's supposed to be a teacher at the school now but laughably still looks like the 19 year old college student she was at the beginning of the film. I just couldn't get into it after that. I see the actress was only 28 when she filmed the movie and the actress who played the college student version of her was just 4 years younger lol. Please.

Put some money in the makeup budget to at least TRY to make the actress appear 10 years older than she actually is. Can't recommend.

An Endless Loop

Nature abhors a vacuum. That apparently is the reason that the writer Courtney Snow has returned to her prep school, the Douglas Academy, accepting a post as artist in residence. But she doesn't do much teaching in the course of the film. Rather, she has returned home to put closure on ghosts from the past.

The film awkwardly juggles scenes in the present with flashbacks that recall the shocking death by an apparent suicide by student Jane Halloran. The tragic occurrence took place in the room at the end of the all in the McEvoy dormitory. Of course, the site will be the residence of Courtney as she begins her new job. Much of the film seemed overly "talky" without enough action to sustain the viewer's interest.

A young student named Laurel resides in the fateful room where Jane died. Laurel is visited by impressions of Jane, which leads to a dark story of deceit and murder. The oily rector may hold the secrets as to why Jane was "ripped out of this world against her will." Jane's journal holds the documentary evidence related to a little baby that will tie the mysterious strands together. Who will find the "lost" journal?

An essential metaphor raised in the film is the "endless loop" that is bringing back the secrets of the past. Brett, the son of the smooth-talking rector, may hold one of the key pieces in the puzzle about the lineage of little Laurie. In the end, the film conveys the truth that "these walls can talk" in the McEvoy dormitory of the Douglas Academy Boarding School.

Nightmare Alley

***SPOILERS**** Having her best friend Jane Halloran, Jacquine Macinnes Wood, kill herself 17 years earlier while attending Douglas Boarding School Courtney Snow, Sara Rue at 35 & Amber Borycki at 19, became obsessed with her and later wrote a best selling novel about Jane. It was the success of Courtney's novel that later brought Jane back to life to haunt her over the circumstances of her suicide. Getting a teaching job at her Alma Motta the Douglas Bording School one of Countrey students turned out to be 18 year old Laura McAvory, also played by Miss. Wood, who not only is the spitting image of Jane but knows things about her as well as Courtnety that only Countrey knows about! Even more strange Laura insisted to be assigned the very room where Jane killed herself!

The film gets a bit confusing in it switching back and forth in time in trying to piece together what happened back then when both Courtney and Janes were students at Douglas and the present in Courtney coming to grips to what was the real reason behind Jane's tragic death; If in fact it was a suicide. It takes a while to unravel but the missing piece of the puzzle to all this is Jane's boyfriend back at Douglas Bratt Ramsey, Kevin Smith at 35 and Sabastian Secki at 18, who also happened to be the son of Douglas Bording School's Dean of Admissions Mr. Ian Ramsey played by Duncan Regehr.

It seemed that Bartt was cheating behind Jane's back with non other then her best friend Courtney Snow! This could be the reason that Courtney became so obsessed with Jane's killing herself feeling that she in some way was responsible for it! And what did young Laura have to do with all this! Why was she so much like the dead Jane Hallonan? The only person who knew the truth Ian Ramsey wasn't talking but was determined to keep all that secret even if he has to resort to murder to do it!

***SPOILERS*** Modern ghost story without any ghosts, in spirit or in the flesh, but with something that was left behind and now, some 17 later,came back to hunt those responsible for Jane's death. The ending isn't all that surprising in that you saw it coming from as much as 10 miles away. Yet it still was effective in trying all he loose ends together in this very confusing and a times disjointed movie!
