The setup for this movie is silly. An engaged girl, Tara, meets a bartender, Patrick, at a really stupid pseudo-sex-freak club shortly before her wedding. The awfulness hits right out of the gate. The director did a really bad job of portraying this weirdo freak club. I'm guessing the intent was to show something like what we see in Single White Female but instead it just looks like some idiots in bad clown makeup hanging out at a high end bar that was used during daytime hours to shoot this scene. Patrick is covered in tattoos and appears to be on the Gumby workout plan. He is obsessed with Tara literally from the second he lays eyes on her, he acts crazy from the get-go and he wears a ring on his index finger so we know for sure he's nuts. Even though Patrick acts bizarrely intense from the moment Tara first speaks to him, he seems to make her uncomfortable immediately, and she seems to have no doubts about getting married, Patrick is kind of hot so naturally she sleeps with him. Despite the fact that he acts like a straight up freak from minute one, Tara is shocked after waking up post-bow-chicka-bow-wow to find him acting like...well, a freak.

The acting isn't great but it could be worse considering how awful the movie is. The one exception being the girl who plays the sister-holy Toledo, she must be the director's sister or something. I hope her family didn't gather around to watch her in this because that would just be awkward for everyone. Wes Bentley is good as he always is and I commend him for being able to deliver anything in this dumpster fire of a movie. It's just a shame this is the kind of garbage he is doing now. Maybe he owed someone a favor. It is also disappointing that Alexandra Breckenridge is in this but doesn't have much to do. She is pretty good-too good for this, that's for sure. She probably should have played Tara instead of the other chick.

Lame camera work, obviously fake settings (the hospital scene is particularly hilarious), bad scene transitions, shots that last too long and laugh-out-loud camera angles involving a house elevator do not help matters. I'm guessing the director found this cool, unusual house to use for the movie, had a tent pole over the elevator and decided to use it to the fullest extent. Er, well, as far as a house elevator can be used in a movie that isn't actually about a house elevator. The other scene which stood out as being especially ridiculous was the scene where Tara and her friend meet up with a "private eye" after he looks into Patrick's background. They meet at some sort of Japanese temple to go over the findings, I assume because that is so much easier and more natural than heading over to Denny's. I actually felt bad for the director on this one. It's all kind of embarrassing at that point.

Anyway, all the typical crazy stalker shenanigans ensue. There's nothing new here at all, and there are some threads which wind up being pointless and lead to nothing. For example, the endless dossier or love letter or manifesto Patrick spends a bunch of time writing, which is apparently none of our business. So much is dedicated to him writing this stupid thing and then we do not get to read or hear or know a single thing he wrote in it. Lazy screenwriting, folks, that's what this is. The other part that goes nowhere is the introduction of the sister into the story. There is screen time dedicated to this which ends up being 100% pointless and fruitless in every way. It makes me wonder if there was more to that part but the girl playing the sister was such a horrendous actress that they cut it all out. But Patrick's note wasn't a bad actor and that went nowhere either, so again it appears this is just a bad script.

The one and only positive thing about the movie is the last few seconds of it. I didn't see that coming and thought it was pretty decent/funny/dreadful. Alas, twelve seconds at the end of a movie hardly makes the rest of it worthwhile.

Bottom line: this movie is only for major fans of the stalker movie genre or Wes Bentley and even then, I wouldn't bother with it unless you have watched every stalker and Bentley movie on earth already.

Saw this movie on Amazon Prime since I am a fan of Wes Bentley and recognize Jaimie Alexander from the Thor movies. In terms of the premise it is very simple. Jaimie Alexander plays Tara who is engaged to be married to Michael. While out with her friends for a bachelorette party they let loose and have fun. Tara meets a bartender at a club named Patrick, and they end up sleeping together. After that moment Patrick ends up developing an obsession with Tara and once she makes it clear that it was simply a one-night stand that is when things start escalating.

Like other stalker movies he gets more involved in her life and looks for ways to sabotage it. In terms of acting it was not great with the exception being Wes Bentley. He does crazy very well (see a similar movie called P2 where he absolutely tormented Rachel Nichol's character in a parking lot). I would go so far as to say that he carries this movie because the rest of the cast was mediocre to poor. Even Jaimie Alexander was fairly bland and only stood out because of her beauty. I have seen her in Thor and a few episodes of the TV series Blindspot, so I know that she is capable of putting in a good performance. Her friends and sister (Emily) were terrible and cringy.

I do not regret watching this film and have seen much worse; however, in terms of the obsessive stalker-type movies it has been done better elsewhere. As a matter of fact, Wes Bentley's own P2 (2007) was very well done on what looks like a smaller budget with fewer cast members and confined primarily to one location (an underground parking lot). Give P2 a watch instead; however if you absolutely must watch this then see it for Wes Bentley and only watch it once. 5/10 due to Wes.

IF you aren't a Wes Bentley fan there is LITERALLY no reason to watch this film. He is the ONLY redeeming quality the film has to offer. He is great in pretty much everything he's in, so other than casting him in the psycho lead, there was nothing else to redeem it; this movie was awful on every level. They either paid Wes Bentley a ridiculous amount of money to act with the rest of the clown car full of so called "actors & actresses" in this horrible pile of drek, or he owed someone a HUGE favor. The kind of favor that involves saving someone's life, or the kind of favor that involves someone keeping a horrible secret you don't want another living soul to know about. Either way, he is the single solitary reason to waste an Hour and a Half of your life you'll never get back.

First, there is a reason this didn't make it to the theaters or I think even have a preview in the US. Even having it come out on DVD is a waste. One of the worst actresses I have ever seen. No realism, emotion or anything that would make you believe she is going through what she is. How is she an actress? The husband just as bad, the villain had a little going at least but he had to play against these two, her being the worst so it didn't help him at all. Could had given me a little something to make it look somewhat real but it just didn't work, at all. Could say the writing was bad and that some of the scenes and what the characters did was just the result of possibly bad writing and it made the whole thing look bad but they were just terrible. I'm not going to spoil it, it does that on its own but understand it's bad acting, bad writing, scenes just didn't make sense, and just didn't have me wondering what would happen next because I didn't care. Had to see it to the end to try and help,others steer away if possible or at least try and come up with one positive, sorry I could not. They played the typical types you would think but just badly. The shocker at the end made me say , God please don't do another. Go see another movie, save yourself

I can't say more than what others have said about this poor film. Not including Wes Bentley, everyone was just horrible. Fiancé always looks like he's been slicing onions, bride-to-be was just flat and without emotion, her friend was okay and would have done better with a bigger role.. even the kid sister was painful to watch. And one of my pet peeves on film was alive and well in this one: non-smokers whose characters they play are smokers. It wasn't just that bride-to-be wasn't convincing. She looked downright stupid as a smoker. Don't waste your time on this one.

Tara Bloom (Jamie Alexander) goes on her bachelorette party weekend in New Orleans. She is seduced by dark, mysterious bartender Patrick (Wes Bentley). She leaves after a night of passion back to her fiancé Michael (Cam Gigandet) in California. Patrick is obsessed and flies out to stalk her. Her friend Debra (Alexandra Breckenridge) tries to help.

This is supposed to be a thriller. The problem is the horrible boring production. There is no tension to speak of. The filming is done as blandly as possible. It is dull and slow. There are no surprises. There is nothing compelling. It should be dark but it's more cheese than noir. The acting is functional. Cam is more comfortable playing a douche. His face-off with Wes becomes a douche-off. Tara is not that great to root for either. This is not really a threatrical thriller.

All a bit daft, but harmless enough entertainment if nothing else better to do.

Would appeal more to the girls than the boys

Think Fatal Attraction, but this time it's the girl who cheats.

Our protagonist is on a bachelorette weekend and meets a very hot bartender. Naked happens....

The bartender turns out to be a mentally unstable obsessed weirdo who comes after her, hard.

Will her fiance find out? How crazy is this dude? What lengths is he willing to go to, to get his girl? It's a pretty good movie, predictable but entertaining. I liked it.

I only watched this because it had Cam Gigandet in it. This is one of those movies, when after it's done, you wish you could get that time back. Poor direction, cliche storyline, horrible acting. All around BAD and disappointing. Too bad you can't rate it a negative number.

I watched all the way to the end out of pure amusement and amazement that this was even made!! It was AWFUL!! I gave it one star because I wasn't allowed to award a nothing star. It felt like it was put together by an amateur film crew! BAD BAD BAD BAAAAAAAD!! Did I mention BAD?!!

Should have read reviews before watching.

Storyline, is that a not so bright bride to be on her bachelorette weekend sleeps with a psycho bartender.

However the infatuation that the bartender has for her becomes intense, firstly showing up at her home etc.

There are times that you just want to switch off, personally I forwarded it to the obvious ending, unfortunately, has script writing and directing goes, this is rubbish.

Poor Tara, has been written in to the film mainly to act out a role that makes her out to be totally selfish, with of low intelligence, which all comes to the fore-front at the end.

Stereotype role for Wes Bentley as the "evil" bartender, that I guess does play well, probably reason for the 1 star.

Your typical lifetime movie. Many movies along the same story line.

I sometimes watch bad stalker movies. I find their predictability, bad acting and uninspiring dialogue somehow entertaining on a rainy day.

But this was bad-bad. Who green lit this? Who wrote this and why did they want to punish us?!

A few years ago I would just call this completely unbelievable. And while I still stand by that statement, when I see how some Americans are being duped over again and again and don't seem to be able to see that ... well I guess it is not that much of a stretch for ignoring someone evil until there is an outburst of violence (do your own comparisons to the capitol attack the other week).

But back to this and I do like the actors involved in this. I like the 3 main actors in this. But even they cannot really salvage anything. Unfortunately while it starts off intriguing, it does end in disaster ... in many ways and none of them are good.

Ha! At the beginning of this one I thought great two of the most creepy guys ... Wes Bentley, who is great by the way, and Cam Gigandet, who is also great.

So we get creepy stalker guy Bentley coming after girl after a one night stand.

The movie was just average, the end...kinda cheese. I cannot recommend. 4/10

...Wes Bentley. That's all I need to say.

(Actually, IMDB is making me add this sentence as my review was too short.)

Poor acting, unbelievable script. Just so bad. The ending was just shockingly far fetched.
