Tricia and Callie are two sister meeting again after several years of separation. Tricia's husband being missing for seven years, it's time to end the endless researches and declare him dead. It's however when this decision is taken that she starts to see terrifying apparitions of her missing husband, her psychologist qualifiying those "lucid dreams". At the same time, Callie has a strange encounter in a tunnel she jogs in everyday...
--> This movie is a pretty good surprise. We can clearly percieve the "low budget" side but which stays secondary thanks to the actresses and the special effects. Actresses who aren't known by the general public, nor models, which makes the movie really realistic. The special effects are principally blurry, contrarily to all the other American movies where the tense atmosphere is carried by what is seen and not what we believe that we saw.
The only negative point in this movie is the audio. A single theme coming back incessantly buzzing at your ears, with a lot of bass occulting most of the dialogs at this moment. It's a pity, especially that it translates pretty well the "routine" of a normal life. But the sound is too high.
I give a 7/10 to Absentia, and class it in the tense good surprises!
