    well crafted very low budget horror flick

    With no money for special effects, all the time and attention was given to the script. Although not a *fine* film, if you are a fan of low budget horror you will be pleased by the director's attention to dialogue and his remarkabley un-holey plot.

    Not that bad

    i am a big fan of extremely lo-budget films, but this one had great special effects, but as far as the story line and the acting goes I will give it a ** of *****.

    Only if they could of done a better acting job.

    Great Ending....

    The movie is a bit slow and has too much talk talk talk talking, but then it picks up and hooks you in. A great surprise ending helps it too. Watch out for the 3-D like scene where an old bum pukes right at you! Good stuff. Mr. Berry did a fine job all around.

    What a load of Sh--

    Funniest movie I've seen in a long, long time. The kids were stupid and I was praying that they would hurry up and die. As for the dialouge, I didn't know there was such words as "Hypervendicate" and "gudiver", maybe it was ebonics. And for those of you who are giving this movie ANY praise what-so-ever, no comment.

    Black comedy

    Hilarious black comedy horror movie... by "black comedy", I mean that every character is black. Also, the picture quality is horrible, so you'll be staring at a lot of black. And, also, most people would rather be staring at grim black death than ever watch this movie; it's quite bad. Starting with a stylistic opening sequence of a fun little murder, it quickly becomes a child abuse saga and then turns into an urban party. Sort of a Boys N Da Hood for Nightmare on Elm Street fans or something.

    I can kind of see some promise in the direction (as one reviewer already mentioned, the drunk-guy 3D puke scene is amazing), but it's all so, so, SO cliché and stereotypically stupid. It's probably one of the dumber horror movies ever, but you gotta dig that 'Tales from the Hood' poster in the video store. I'm sure that they were trying to make a film here that could rival that movie, and that's kind of like a cat turd wishing it were dog crap or something. Avoid this at all costs; it's not even funny how bad it is.
