I am honestly not sure what I have been watching... nor do I care. Escape from Tomorrow - an epic tale of a pervert dad chasing teenagers and attempting the wtf award. This movie is not horror by any sense of the word, but more of an attempt for some artistic flick, failed miserably at that. Just because a film is in black and white does not make it cool. Just because it is weird and un-watchable does not make it brilliant. I get the sense that the director tried to be very original and ground breaking. It didn't work. You can sense that unnatural effort with every scene, and it's sad because the director forgot that the viewers are interested in enjoying the movie too. All I was thinking about is I wish I could go back to Disneyland and have some pancakes. And that the ending was probably the best thing that happened to that poor wife.

Uncertain of why he was fired from work, a father-of-two does not heed the advice of his former boss and lets his imagination run wild while on vacation at Disneyland in this one-of-a-kind guerrilla movie. Shot on location at Disneyland and Disney World, apparently without permission, the movie is worth checking out simply for the unique spin that the filmmakers place on the popular amusement parks. Lusciously shot in black and white, the filmmakers emphasise every single shadow and manage to bring out something ominous in all of the buildings and rides. Clocking in at nearly 90 minutes though, the film feels incredibly long given the slimness of the premise. The story basically consists of the father slowly losing his mind, and while there is initially some doubt as to whether or not it is all in his head, this quickly disappears and things soon become fairly repetitive, some mood-destroying scatological humour near the end aside. Even if not entirely engaging the whole way through, 'Escape from Tomorrow' is an easy film to appreciate. The "bad things happen everywhere" agenda works well as the film focuses on the daughter tripping and falling and the son experiencing motion sickness, quite aside from the father losing his marbles. Roy Abramsohn also does well making his lecherous character come off as sympathetic. His job anxiety truly resonates and it is easy to feel for his desire to feel youthful again by following the two French teenagers around. What exactly his final appearance at the end is meant to signify though is anybody's guess.

This movie basically plays with all the legend Urban's myth of Disney world.From the robots humans to the demons employees to the mysterious deaths to the ghost kids...I mean to all that creepy things that we all hear of Disney.i like the movie creepy ambient and the way they put all things together.The acting is average for this kind of movie and the movie never boring and catch you since the opening.Is glad to see a very different kind of horror movie...see this movie and go inside the "dark and cruel world of Disney".

"Checking in?" "That we are." Opening at Sundance in January 2013, with a reception of mixed reviews afterwards, 'Escape From Tomorrow' is an American fantasy horror film shot in chilling monochrome and shot on location in Walt Disney World and Disneyland...without permission respectively. The cast and skeleton crew used guerrilla filmmaking techniques to avoid attracting attention, keeping their scripts on iPhones and shooting on the video mode of two Canon EOS digital single-lens reflex cameras. Having a reputation for aggressively protecting its intellectual property, Disney has been tolerant of visitors uploading their videos of their visits on YouTube and elsewhere, since most of those user-created videos create a positive atmosphere of the parks. However, director Randy Moore did not expect to get permission to shoot there, given his negative, surreal portrayal of the happiest place on Earth. Though having been compared to the works of Roman Polanski and David Lynch, many who saw the film expressed strong doubts that it would be shown to a wider audience due to legal issues involved and the negative depiction of Disney's theme parks. The company said that they were "aware" of the film and, rather than suppress it, they decided to ignore it, and thus 'Escape' was edited in South Korea and released simultaneously to theaters and video-on-demand on October 11, 2013, through PDA, a Cinetic Media company. So...why does this film exist again? Let's take a look.We open on a shirtless Jim White (Roy Abramsohn), an American everyman on the balcony of the hotel of which he and his family are vacationing at the aforementioned theme park with his wife and two kids. Upon his boss calling him and informing him that he has lost his job, he keeps the news to himself as to not upset the family's remaining time at the resort on their last day there. Taking the monorail to the park, he encounters two Parisian girls named Isabelle (Annet Mahendru) and Sofie (Danielle Safady), and his interests and inner lusts for them increases as their paths cross repeatedly in the park either by accident or by means of deliberation. After a fight with his wife Emily (Elena Schuber) in not taking their son Elliot on Space Mountain (which gives him motion sickness) he then takes his daughter Sara to the Magic Kingdom rides only to keep up his pursuit of the French girls.On the night of the premiere, film critic Drew McWeeny wrote: "It is not possible that this film exists". It is actually hard for me to believe as well...but it does. While others may see this as such, or as just a terrible movie, I see it more as of a character study...whilst also agreeing with everyone else, of course. Perhaps the happiest place on Earth is not only black and white to our eyes but through the eyes of Jim as well...not only when he had lost his job that day but maybe the whole time he was in fact there. The magical utopia that are Disney theme parks of fake castles and anthropomorphic rodents, for him, have become nothing more than a flavorless underworld of disturbing animatronics, princesses posing as hookers for rich Asian businessmen and finally, with hilarious but stupid effects (After Effects mostly throughout), the cat flu. Reported on Movies.com that people were already calling it "the ultimate guerrilla film", the tedious flick plays out as if its viewers are stuck in a car on a ride polar-opposite from The Haunted Mansion: A man is decapitated riding Big Thunder Mountain, 'JESUS' is written in the sky, a scientist is really an android. And the viewer may never look at the Epcot Center the same way again after Jim makes an observation a la double-entendre. Audaciously chimerical,smutty, uncomfortably dark and poignantly surrealistic, 'Escape From Tomorrow' lingers in the mind long afterwards and definitely remains an offbeat thriller nonetheless of relentless and inventive film-making, showing us the power of what can truly be done with a micro-budget over the power of imagination. I personally have not had my own personal 'Escape' experience when I paid my ticket to see Uncle Walt last summer in California, but I did however smile to myself while waiting in line that I had indeed seen the movie, and the only comparison between the Disney theme parks and that film are this...in that they both exist.
