Peter Alfred Runsible, the uninvited guest, is on a quest to retrieve all of his belongings after a frustrating breakup with the long standing tenant Shelby Denehee. Her girlfriend Bonnie Watt has made a feast for the eyes and guts of all these broken people. Boots, quiet for his own reasons, takes notes on every little thing that could unlock the mysteries of the Apartment. Shelby would love more than anything for everyone to leave. Together they take an anxiety ridden journey into the human psyche thru bread crumbs, peanuts, and otherworldly delights.

Reviews
SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
Infamousta brilliant actors, brilliant editing
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
