    Watchable if somewhat flawed revenge indie-slasher

    After attending a college party, a young woman goes home with a pair of frat guys who proceed to rape her and leave her drunk body behind for dead, only to find themselves haunted by her spirit until everything comes back to a series of shocking reveals against them at a housewarming party.

    Overall, this was an okay if unspectacular effort. Among the problems here is the completely cliched and predicted feel to everything that happens here. The origin of her condition being wasted at a party and getting taken advantage of in cruel and humiliating ways before coming back from the supposed dead to exact revenge is quite expected and unoriginal even with the impactful sequence that causes everything. That the resulting ploy to grab all the necessary parties involved on the hit list is just overdone and completely expected, much like the unlikable main group who come off completely wrong during the fateful sequence with their irrational line of thought towards trying to get her awake and dispose of the body in vile, heinous ways. The other issue with this one is the rather dragged-out pacing in the second half where this one really takes a while to get going. The disposal of the body and the guilt associated from the incident should've played more of an impact in the story yet get dropped after one scene to focus on the friends gathering together or having a party. Rather than build-up any kind of suspense or even hint of something going on, instead the group is shown hanging out at the house, swimming in the pool or having party games which again show off how unlikeable they are as friends. Since it's the main focus here instead of dawning realization of what's going on, these scenes are quite dull and plodding, lowering this one somewhat. Once the film gets going, there's quite a lot to like. The changeover into the more horror-centric ideas present with the persistent knocking, dreams and hallucinations each of the guys have to note they're being targeted and the early stage freakouts they have as the party starts to turn are all exceptionally well-done and give this a lot of momentum into the actual revenge shown here. The idea of turning the tables on aggressors and accusers for their past indiscretions no matter how much involvement they had in the act itself is carried across with their turning the tables on everyone and not only teasing but actively torturing the guilty parties which is cathartic, brutal and highly enjoyable setting up for a fantastic finish. This makes for a fun time and sells this one considerably over the flaws.

    Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.

    Not what I was expecting

    This was a bad movie. I watched the whole thing hoping that it would get better, it never did. The story was boring and the action only happened in the last 18 minutes. The ending was kinda okay, because they got what they deserved, but the rest of the movie really sucked.

    It's watchable...

    It's a watchable horror movie but that's about where it ends with this one. I wasn't into the storyline and I felt like there were some moments of poor acting that took me out of the film pretty quick and it was hard for me to get back into it. However, there are some cool kills and some cool jump scares in it that definitely worked.

    Uneventful and boring!

    I watched it! Don't watch it. Story is compelling but that's it! Nothing worth your time

    Don't bother

    Filmed from an iphone with no real story, and the cherry on the cake is the atrocious "actor" charles chudabala. He takes the cake of worst actor of all time.
