'SECONDS APART': Three Stars (Out of Five) This entry in this year's (2011) 'After Dark Originals' is about mysterious twins with deadly telepathic and telekinetic abilities. It was directed by Antonio Negret and written by George Richards and it stars Orlando Jones (in a surprisingly serious role). It also stars Gary and Edmund Entin as the twins and Samantha Droke as one twin's hot love interest. The acting is all decent and so are the overall production values. This horror film is also surprisingly unique and somewhat unpredictable. It's a surprisingly well made entry in this year's 'After Dark' horror series! It tells the story of Seth and Jonah (the Entin brothers), two dark and creepy twin brothers attending a Catholic high school. When their classmates begin dying mysterious deaths, that appear to be suicide, the lead detective investigating the case, Detective Lampkin (Jones), begins to suspect the twins are somehow involved. The twins have a special bond, that only they know is the power of telepathy, and are doing a project that involves making a movie. Lampkin knows that there's something off about them and he knows they were close to a number of the victims before they died, sometimes with a camera (although a recording can't be found). As he questions them things become tense and Lampkin is also haunted by memories of the death of his wife in a tragic fire. Things also become emotional for the twins when jealousy begins to tear them apart as a lovely young lady (Droke) enters one of their lives. The film is very dark and twisted and has just the right amount of gore and thrills to please most horror fans. The Entin brothers are great in the leads as the twins and make a very frightening duo. Droke is great eye candy and Jones is interesting as the movie's protagonist. I never really knew where the movie was going and found it pretty engaging right up to the end. The lead characters are the twins though and they're a little too dark and sinister to really care about them, so the movie lacks any true sympathy or heart. It's a great dark horror film though that's plenty disturbing and manages to offer a somewhat different story than the usual. It's definitely one of the better 'After Dark Originals'.

Identical Twins Edmund and Gary Entin star in Seconds Apart. The title refers to the fact that the two were born exactly that way to their mother. In point of fact for purposes of this film understand that they can't be apart for a second. Like the Halliwell sisters on Charmed with their power of three, these two have the power of two, they are telepathically blessed from their point of view or cursed from everyone else. Since they were little kids when they experimented on their late babysitter when they pool concentration they can do remarkable things to others. A couple of kids at their Catholic High School died playing Russian roulette and that gets cops involved, specifically Detective Orlando Jones. He figures out what was going on since the boys have the power to force hallucinations and he's still traumatized by the loss of his wife in a fire. The problem is that Jones can't get anyone else to believe him. The two Entin kids are terrifying and the film does create a nice atmosphere of Gothic horror like what used to be done at Universal Studios in those classic days. This one's a bit above the usual slash and gore flicks inflicted on the public today.

For a movie in the 'After Dark' series, then "Seconds Apart" was somewhat of a disappointment. Why? Well because this movie was predictable, boring and very uneventful, and far, far from being even the least bit scary. One thing that the movie did have working for it, was the camera work and the cinematography. That was actually off the charts. The movie was really nice to look at, almost bordering on being worth of being called art. And that is what made me suffer through the entire movie, just watching the great camera angles, the contrasts of colors used, the way the scenes were set up, and the details in the scenes. The acting in the movie wasn't bad either, although I wouldn't say that there wasn't anything memorable being put on either. Orlando Jones (playing detective Lampkin) actually did most of the carrying in regards of who pulled the most weight in the acting. Edmund Entin (playing Jonah) and Gary Entin (playing Seth) did also do alright jobs, making their characters come off as disturbing and twisted. I had expected more from this movie, as it is part of the 'After Dark' series, so I was somewhat disappointed with the predictability of the movie. The movie had a great thing with building up suspense and leaving you to wonder, but it eventually was toppled by the predictability of the movie. And once the director decided it was time to reveal the reality of what was going on in the movie, it just totally fell clattering to the floor, the movie took a turn for the worse there. That ending was, in my opinion, not the best of choices. "Seconds Apart" might be interesting for you, if you like pseudo-horror/thrillers that doesn't require too much thinking. Just don't expect too much, you might just set yourself up for disappointment. Despite the great camera work, it just wasn't enough to sustain the movie and keep it afloat. This was a disappointing experience for me.

Seth (Gary Entin) and Jonah (Edmund Entin) are twins who use their telepathy to murder their classmates in sadistic ways and then watch the videotaped murders in an attempt to feel fear. Years earlier, their first victim was the babysitter who devoured a lovely breakfast concoction of milk and glass shards. Fast forward to present day when a group of jocks kill themselves during a game of Russian Roulette, which prompts the police and a haggard detective, Lampkin (Orlando Jones), to start an investigation. No one wants to talk, especially not about the twins. His suspicion grows after Katie, a fellow student who rats them out, slits her own throat in broad daylight during class. Lampkin takes it upon himself to mercilessly stalk and harass the boys. With the detective recording their every blink and fart and the arrival of a new student, Eve (Samantha Droke), tension between Seth and Jonah spirals out of control toward a climactic conclusion. This isn't much of a horror or thriller film despite perhaps one cringe- worthy scene put in for shock value. It's more of a mystery & suspense/crime drama but, CSI fans, stay far, far away, lest you want to burst into tears every time Lampkin hits the screen to continue his inappropriate reign of terror on the twins. The shoddy detective work is highly suspect and, obviously, the writer didn't research this aspect of the film as much as he did telepathy. Is it going to go noticed by the average viewer? Probably not. The movie idles midway through but it manages to come back to life toward the end. Despite the faltering story, the performances are above average, which is surprising for lesser known flicks, horror or otherwise. Most horror buffs will find Seconds Apart distinctive and refreshing. Everyone else may just see it as another hokey After Dark presentation with cute, creepy twins.

It's be on my watch list for a bit and I was did not expect get this movie for one pound, It's was decent movie for one pound that for sure. I liked the twins was doing the same thing at the same time at the start of the movie, it makes feel bit more creepy. As the movies goes on, it kind of losses the creepy of the movie but get bit stranger and can get a bit confused in few scenes, Your watching it but not sure what really going on at times also I enjoyed how twins mess with victims but at the same they are also messing with us. That decent curve in story, I didn't not see coming at all, after that, the movie felt a little to rushed. I do think this movie could have been a lot longer, there decent stuff, which I don't they used to full potential. 6 out of 10 - I got it for £1 so I not complaining

Seconds Apart – TRASH IT (C+) Seconds Apart is one of those horror movies which either not very bad nor very good. This is strictly in-between. The movie starts off strong but stumbles towards the end. Everything was so predictable no shock value in the end. The Twins Edmund and Gary Entin are creepy looking dudes. They defiantly bring the scare factor in the movie. Other cast is pretty much mediocre especially the black police officer. On the whole, there is nothing like we have not seen before. A good attempt but good have been better. I won't recommend to anyone so simply Trash It!

Very much enjoyed this film. Interesting premise and story, just the right amount of "creepiness", gore, and psychological thrill. I cannot think of any similar films and for this reason feel it is certainly quite unique, unlike any other, and deserves to be watched by anyone who enjoys mind-bending horror. Visually spectacular, well-written, great acting and, although there were a few instances that I thought were predictable, I was wrong 95% of the time. The film keeps you thinking, guessing, and those are the best types of Horror/Thrillers in my opinion. Definitely feel this film should have a higher rating and I'm not sure why I had not heard of it before finding it on IMDb. Of course, with ANY movie, everyone will form their own opinions/conclusions and what some viewers may love, others may hate. This is why it really needs to be watched so one can form their own opinion and review. Would like to see more similar films such as this one! Seconds Apart, as mentioned, is in a class of its own!

It's all about telepathy, not that it is bad at all but it wasn't my cup of tea. It do has some really nice shots and mind tricks but the red stuff isn't their. Don't get me wrong, it isn't necessary (think Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre) but then you will need suspense and here it's all about the talking. Be warned, the first minutes are really well done, it do has some suspense and some bloody shots but after the begin credits it falls into one speech after the other. The acting is really okay and the way it was filmed too but if you go into the world of telepathy then I think more like Videodrome or gory stuff like that.

I am going to be honest. The plot is a little weak and I really could not get past the absolute diabolical acting from Gary and Edmund Entin. The two of them need an acting class, pronto. I remember seeing them briefly in a role in that bomb of a film 'the seeker' -not worth watching either- I recall thinking about how BAD they where in that too. It is sad to think that these two terrible actors are even getting work. They are certainly NOT worth the price of admission or cost of a DVD. Not even worth my renting or streaming! An that is free. . . So that really says allot. Now as for the actual film, there are some moments of gore, but you could watch a dozen other films and get a better caliber of acting. This is just a straight to DVD job and YOU CAN TELL. That being said, if you do enjoy watching really terrible acting with some camp moments of horror then by all means this is the movie for you to sit down with.
