The Door follows Natasha (Reba Landers), a young woman that goes to visit her estranged uncle (Brian Pollock) who is a recluse obsessed with keeping doors shut. But the visit seems to bring out some hidden demons that they'd rather keep behind closed doors.
Stumbled upon this one in the weirdest way. I fell asleep while watching Visitors, and YouTube auto-played this one right after. So when I woke up, I decided to back it up and check it out. It is very low budget, but for the most part, it is well shot and director Andrew Froening manages to set an effective atmosphere of dread.
Both performances are solid, even if you can see the seams at certain points. I also think that, despite throwing some crumbs about what's happening, it doesn't really make for a fully coherent story. Still, I enjoyed the mood it built up.
