Definitely evocative of horror flicks, the scissors, which appear briefly in the hands of the lead character or one of his clones in the trailer are front and center over a stereotypical clock with an elephant man like visage in the background.
It looks a bit bizarre to be entertaining and dealing with time is a very difficult prospect. There are elements of horror films in the trailer, which undoubtedly betray the film's actually sci-fi background.
This film wasn't submitted to the Academy, so it's chances are non-existent.
I have not seen this film.
