It's a good story, but it doesn't come from Ruddy's pen directly; it's cribbed from a Roald Dahl short that has been previously filmed much more accessibly and interestingly. The end result is a needlessly dark piece that really has very little to offer.

I guess the director made this when he was at NYU, because I swear I had this film screened in no less than five different different classes at NYU film school as an example of short form narrative. It's perfectly fine, but I did get a little sick of watching it.
