    There's a very cheap little horror movie, "Coherence," where Nicholas Brendon essentially plays himself as a washed-up alcoholic TV star. He improvised it all. He's the best thing in it. There was a lot of talent in this guy that never saw the light of day.

    If you're looking for a non-Buffy Nicholas Brendan fix, allow me to recommend COHERENCE, one of the top four doppelganger-themed movies of the 2013-14 season, which makes use of one of my favorite affordable special effects: hire an actor with a twin. www.youtube.com/watch?v=71F0...

    Brightwood on Tubi is cool: Coherence meets Triangle on a morning run—with relationship stakes. And it’s a clinic for how to make a movie on the cheap. Kind of story where you half-expect Rod Serling to step into frame at the end.

    Had a dream that famous YouTubers made the most surreal, unapproachable movie (kinda like Coherence but with murder) where they were a friend group in different timelines trying to kill each other, the timelines got weirder until people were being transformed into creatures as a method of murder lol

    My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 review of COHERENCE boxd.it/dSFSAp Unassuming indie unfolds like intricate puzzle box, getting more & more cleverly diabolical with each reveal. Smart screenplay, talented cast, bold & ambitious. Screw Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters! Set in one house, tiny film blew me away! #filmsky 📽

    This film actually developed out of James Ward Byrkit's idea of shooting a film without a crew or a script on a minimal budget, and was filmed in his living room. Exempting the music and the film quality designation, I think this might meet the criteria for a Dogme 95 film. . #FrightClub #Coherence

    Coherence is the second comet movie I have seen this week. It was an exercise in what paranoia can do to a group of friends having dinner while a comet soars overhead. It's very trippy, and interesting. It's billed as a psychological thriller. It is showing for free on Kanopy in the US.
