Trivia
The opening scene is a shot-by-shot remake of the murder scene of Kevin Bacon's character in Vendredi 13 (1980)

Quotes
Al Jason: [narrating] Funny thing is, no one talked about it. Locals referred to the murder as "the incident." That's not surprising. It's the kind of guilty small town where burying the past had been elevated to a virtue. Not that that suited me fine at first. I always had this picture in my head of a quiet friendly town, but pictures are deceiving.

Crazy credits

More A Murder Thriller Mystery But Still Good,

I like Canadian movies, the made for TV ones tend to be pretty good. This is a nice little thriller/horror that keeps the story moving along.

It is set mostly around a cinema with mostly unlikable characters. I don't know why, but I was hard pressed to find at least one sympathetic character apart from the young lead actress.

I have to admit, I did not see the ending coming, so extra points for that.

While it is not a perfect movie, it is an entertaining one. The actors do a good job and it was nice to see so many that had appeared in the X Files, so that was fun.

This is a movie that delivers what it promises, There are some solid kills and a couple of actually scary moments.

This is my version of comfort food horror, something that I enjoy with a warm drink and a bowl of popcorn.
