mattiasflgrtll6 I was actually looking for a completely different movie when somebody said "Maybe this is the movie you are looking for?". It wasn't, but my God am I glad I stumbled upon it. I am literally EXTREMELY thankful I had the luck to know about a movie which unfortunately is so obscure that I don't even know how many in Sweden have seen it. I have tried to convince a friend for several months to check out this unforgettable piece, but to no avail. What a shame, he's really missing out on something special! The thing is, if you watch this the first time, you will probably scratch your head your skin will tear off and brain mass is sighted. Okay, that was a little too much, but still. What's funny about this is that it's not such a complicated or hard-to-get movie after all. I was so convinced I had missed something on the first watch, so I gave it a second viewing. It turned out it was just as simple as I had interpreted it: a surreal, twisted thriller about paranoia in a strange environment. Simon J. is pretty much a normal guy, who tries to live his own life. But he can't, because his boss gets him under the skin by constantly blabbing about the codes he as a computer programmer was supposed to send. But what are the codes for? Mostly taking place in a apartment building, Simon meets a lot of crazy people, even including Howard, who is constructing a small robot with a intricate voice (it was so hard to hear what it said that I had to turn up the volume if I didn't play incredibly close attention) and Trish, who partakes in some... peculiar activities on her time off. His emotional connection to her is one of the most interesting aspects of the movie. Does he love her for real or is he just trying to seek comfort in someone in a world he can't grasp? His friendship with Howard is also a major part of the movie. But even though he's the only one who relatively keeps his sanity intact, nobody goes free from suspicion, since... ... he gets sent empty packages to his apartment again and again and again, which is what motivates him to act as scared and odd as he does. Why is he always being followed when he goes to the grocery store? Why can't he stop buying so much milk? For how long can he avoid paying the rent? And what's up with this virus causing the deaths of several people? We are all Simon in this movie. His fear and incapability to remain calm while he still tries to anyway is so realistic it's scary. I can imagine acting exactly like him if I was put in such a situation. Uncertain and unrelaxed. The only one who actively helps him out is his friend Nile, but isn't he acting cuckoo as well? How can he always arrive to his apartment in barely a minute? The ending has been criticized, but I think it's perfect. It fits the tone of the movie excellently and I can't picture another way it could've turned out. Be prepared it's very dark, depressing and disturbing. But if you're in the mood for a flick outside the boundary and won't be distracted with checking your email and Facebook, which is unfortunately just the same old stuff, watch it. Maybe you'll be just as obsessed with this movie as I myself got afterwards.

p_imdb-238-926380 You didn't hear of this movie for years? Well, good, but sadly somehow you got here, which means you might want to check this movie out.But luckily you ended up reading this review. I won't go into detail, but just give you one tip: It is Bulls*The other reviewers must be crazy. Seeing a riddle behind every camera angle. This movie is crap. It is atmospheric but in a way that made me nervous, I wanted to tear the seat and theater apart. The movie leads nowhere. There isn't a message about anything you are left with. I am a software engineer, and I don't get anything here. I suppose you have to be very ignorant about everything, to see the master plan here. Having some kind of knowledge totally breaks this movie. It is up to you if you want to waste your day. I am still angry writing these lines.

coolfirenewt Simon is a computer programmer who is being pressured to complete a code. He begins to receive unmarked, seemingly empty packages from an unknown source. These packages add to his already paranoid state, making him install a high tech alarm system and put pad locks on everything. His only real communication with the outside world is the currier that brings him the items he requests, including milk, which he begins to buy and drink in large quantities. As he looks into who is sending him the packages, he discovers one neighbor is stockpiling cola and making internet "cybersmut" films through virtual reality programming, another neighbor has been using the smut program on a regular basis and is stockpiling juice, and yet another neighbor is stockpiling meat. The movie goes on to make you believe SImon is really going crazy, until near the end they reveal that he is just a very advanced computer, infected with an invisible program delivered through the empty boxes. Simon's creator was also a neighbor who admits to him the glitches in the program have cause him to become sick and the best thing is to end it all. This movie was basically a waste of time, but if you have 2 hours to kill and want something hard to follow to watch, then this is the movie for you.

JohnnyLarocque I can't believe more people haven't seen this film. I downloaded this film from the internet by chance last year before it came out (It was called "One Point O" then), and I told so many of my friends that they made the trek to the Montreal Film Festival to see it. I anticipated that it would also show in the Toronto Film Festival (where I live) but unfortunately it did not.The cast is brilliant. Udo Kier as a creepy neighbor. Lance Henrickson (in something watchable for a change) as a basement dwelling bum, the deliciously sexy Deborah Kara Unger play the main character Jeremy Sisto's (Six Feet Under, Wrong Turn) love interest.This film actually kept me guessing until the end. It's well paced, originally written, and beautifully shot. It's the exact style of science fiction that I love the most.I just picked up the DVD, now called "Paranoia: 1.0" (I prefer the original title). It's a must have for any sci-fi fan.
