I thought that the acting was above average for a horror picture but there were very few tense moments in this, it could have been much more intense during the murder scenes then it was though it was done better then the typical slasher film. It was an interesting idea with a different kind of plot but there are no real surprises or twist to this movie which left me feeling just OK about this movie, there simply wasn't a wow factor or anything that makes this film stand out. the main actor is from "The Hurt Locker" and was very good as the bad guy. Overall an average movie, just not great since it really wasn't creepy or scary in anyway.

There is absolutely nothing of value in this movie. First of all, forget about the tension or suspense or mystery - because there is none of that. The plot is so hollow that you could seriously not care less what happens next - except looking forward to the end credits. For an R-rated film about sex and murder both of those things are suspiciously missing. Sure people are killed, but they are killed with cutaway shots and splashes of raspberry jam against the wall or window. And the "sex" scenes make old episodes of The Love Boat look x-rated. I guess it was writer Andrew Paquin's sister who got him the chance to make this horrid screenplay into a movie. And if she bankrolled it too, then it's probably his last. Well, it's probably is last anyway.

I can usually even enjoy watching bad movies... but not this one.

I made my husband turn it off because I can't imagine any women could be as useless and pathetic as Alice - and as an actress, she's terrible too, with that odd smirk she has she's not believable at all. Anyway home sick so I finished the movie and oh my gosh why did I waste my time! At least I was multi-tasking. I love how she had plenty of opportunities to escape or attack David and she bungles it each time, the stored bodies in the ice chests, the not-at-all nosy neighbors (should have put the house in the country or something), And finally, the end: how does someone with a steak knife in the eye have such wherewithal as Lila? And such perfect aim! As for Alice, one less breeder I say, what a milksop, your damn chain is a damn weapon! Oh but she's only had it on for a week or more, no doubt she forgot about it altogether. And that guy/friend at the end, what a complete douche - oh gee you're chained in the basement, smells like rotting death down here, you're covered in blood, a bloody woman is on the floor, you've been MIA for awhile, but what's that you're saying, R ye shuere heehaw??? OK OK just wait, let me call the police - UPSTAIRS - cause it's an emergency they get here but not an emergency that we get the F out! Come on, seriously?! Someone said it was like a high school film project, I agree, since no one seemed to take the characters, the plot, the acting or the viewers seriously! I'm willing to bet a few people (sis, sis's bf) were in this movie gratis, just to get it produced, which was a sad mistake. I don't know why I let movies get me angry, but they do, the ones that waste my time and make me feel like everyone involved must think the audience are complete Nimrods. I know there WERE some Nimrods out there that liked this movie, or at least didn't dislike it, but I'm afraid to know what movies are on their top ten list - and they probably are the first in line to see the next Saw, Final Destination, or Paranormal Activity (#3 Baby!!!!!) hahaha.

Alice (Rachel Blanchard) is selling her house. She returns after the Open House. She finds her friend Jennie (Anna Paquin) murdered and she gets taken captive by David (Brian Geraghty). Her ex Josh (Stephen Moyer) shows up and finds Lila (Tricia Helfer) in the hot tub. He gets murdered by Lila who turns out to be David's murderous partner.

This is written and directed by Andrew Paquin, Anna's brother. Obviously, she got all her friends to work on this project. The acting talent is top rate. There is good creepiness out of Geraghty and Blanchard is a solid victim. The story is fine especially for a straight forward horror thriller. The directing is much less competent.

Josh and, Alice ) holds an open house to sell her home. Unknowing to her, a crazy young man named David as hide in the house, come out few hours after.

Also with even more twisted Sister, they both brother and Sister sleep together in parts of this movie.

Most of the time, they just dice and slice friends of Alice who been kidnapped and trapped in the basement.

There were some very bloody moments in this movie but the whole movie was way to predicable

The whole movie just felt bland from start to end with some good looking and decent acting.
