Featured reviews
I agree with some of the reviewers that this movie was actually better than expected. I get the acting is not on par with other movies but we're not talking about A-listers here. There was substance with some nice twists and the story, although not completely original, was still entertaining. Coming from an avid horror cinephile, there's far worse out there. This one's worth your time.
Minor twists that are shocking, but they are done well. Nothing new is explored in this film, but what they do they do well. If this is your type of movie, it is a pleasant time spent.
I think the acting was good perhaps the writing was off or directing. The story was good so I'm going to point toward the writing which is needed to develop the characters right. The actors tried with what they had. I'd recommend no problem to a B movie fan like myself. One thing I am getting sick of is the "not a happy ending" BS. Someone started that as a new twist about a decade ago and now there is no such thing as a happy ending anymore. Which makes it actually depressing in the end. A bad societal norms that has come along if that makes sense.
Overall B+ for my B movie love
I bought this DVD a couple days ago. And i really didn't expect much until i watched it. It was a lot better than my expectations. It does have originality and a dark setting compared to most horror movies that circles along the satanic cult type setting.
To be honest...I almost turned the movie off when it started off slow. But I told myself....wait...give it just a few more minutes, and I am glad I did!! When the movie got going, it did not disappoint with the creepiness and a few scares that made me jump. I like the surprising twists it gave causing me to sit on the edge trying to figure it out. I'm definitely going to watch again especially to see if I notice anything new.
