    terrible, Terrible, TERRIBLE movie

    Oh man, this movie was so freakin bad it astounds me that all the people time and money it must have taken to make could have went to such better places. Like so many other reviewers - where to start in describing this craptacular? The sound in this movie was terrible, most people might overlook this becuz the acting, script and directing is so bad too. But the songs are WAY too loud, the dialouge too quiet, some of it obviouslt re-recorded in post production and atmosphere sounds were badly mixed too, sounded too loud and separate. This "film" has the be the best example of the WORST DELIVERY OF DIALOGUE EVER. The director did such a terrible job casting and using his actors, and the actors were astoundingly terrible - who the hell would ever act/say half the things the main female lead does? Oh, and then there's the ending - which has been done many times before, much better. The main female lead gave such a bad performance the final 'twsit' (which you can see a mile away becuz its been done so often now) is STUPID!

    Totally awful

    My God this was bad!! The acting and directing is so very very bad. The plot (if there is one) is close to nothing. The few (2) persons giving this movie 10, must be involved in making it. I can not believe that any 'normal' movie going person could like this sh**. The effects is so homemade, and it really shows. I have seen a lot of horror / thrillers /slashers, but this is the worst i have seen. Not that the other movies had so much better effects, but the acting and directing was miles better then this. Hi hi... It's so bad you will start laughing at all the faults and stupid moments. Use your time on something better to do and not on this crap.

    Indescribable Diabolical Crud!

    OK, so some teens stole daddy's video camera and went next door that night to make a film about . . . well, I think it's about someone, somewhere killing teens? I swear, my 6 year old kids could do better with special effects from the kitchen, i.e. some ketchup and the script from "Clifford, The Big Red Dog", except Clifford is better. The script is, well, if anyone ever finds it, do let me know so I can line my parrot's cage with it. The 'actors' must be rejects from the local grade school pantomime. The plot is as follows: ZIP. What amazes me is that they managed to get someone to draw a cover for the DVD. It is very annoying that the public will be screwed out of $4.00 at the video store to watch this pile of festering crud. It is an insult to any form of movie making and should be struck from the records. The 'actors', no doubt will spend eternity trying to get their names removed from the credits as it will for ever more completely destroy any hopes they have of becoming actors in any real sense of the word. There was not a single aspect of this flick that warrants any form of credit. Well, maybe one: the 'director' did not use stupid jerky camera techniques designed to cause headaches to viewers. Other than this, spend your dollars on a burger and fries and read the packaging for a much better script. I also realized that the English language lacks the adjectives required to describe this movie. There just are not any words to describe how bad it is, without using expletives. Try it and see. What is really, really scary though, and I mean this, is that there are some people here on IMDb that actually thought this was a good movie. Wha'? Who are these people? Is it possible that these lunatics may be living in my neighborhood, disguised as normal people? What if my kids go over there to play? One of the comments here said that the script was 'original'! Huh? Hello? Earth? The mind absolutely boggles. Einstein was right: stupidity is infinite. I would normally just trash this junk, but I felt I had to write something just to try and save this complete crap from infiltrating the market under the guise of 'entertainment' or, Lord forbid, a 'movie'. We can only hope that the morons who fabricated this swill will stay at school and not ever, ever make any more of this stuff or try to get into the real movies. Please, for all our sakes', just quietly go away and we'll forgive you this transgression. Once. We appreciate you had some bad E or some dodgy pork, but please, slip gently into the night and never, never return.

    one of worst, low budget, no activity, dull, uneventful

    Though shot on video, but that means so little now as a praise or knock, it's decently shot though looks like video,actors look pleasant but cannot act. Big problem here is that very little happens and there is no excitement ever generated. Listen to the director commentary and you'll see perhaps why, as the things he chooses to talk about as being interesting are the least interesting aspects of uninteresting scenes. Very few deaths in the film, only one of these is even convincing to any degree, no nudity--though it teases you in this regard which is a total cheat. If you are telling a story without nudity, good, great even, but don't play the game of being sleazy and then not deliver. But this thing does not deliver on any level ever. Technically there have been worse things released by bigger companies and by MTI who did in fact unleash this talk fest, but what makes this so bad is it is lifeless. There is no effort to do anything of interest with the camera. There is no sense of how to tell a story or get performances out of "actors" It all seems to be done in a industrial film level of competence but who cares? The central idea, if you can even say it has one, so let's say the gimmick isn't convincing. It just plods along to a short running time that seems far far away as the pointless scenes follow one another. Why release this movie? Just don't bother watching it there is no reason. That's why I say it's bad, it's just so pointless, so meaningless, so so so dull.

    Horrible, horrible

    This was indeed a horrible movie. I don't know who to blame, the actors, the script, or the director? Maybe I should blame them all. First of all, the script was done poorly. Secondly, the actors were horrible, lack of talent is apparent. I congratulate the director for filming such an awful movie. I congratulate him because he has astounded me his ability to make such a horrible, horrible movie. People, run away from this movie. Awful plot, poor acting and directing. Your time is better spent just sleeping. At least you wake up feeling refreshed. I want my 1 and a half hours back after watching this excuse of a movie. :-(
