I kept waiting for some kind of twist or plot development that would make it worth watching and it never happened.
It's starts out with some promise, or inklings that their may be something good coming.. BUT IT NEVER HAPPENS.
It gets worse and worse and worse as the movie goes, right up until the end when you realize you will never get the time back that you lost watching it.
There is NOTHING REDEEMING ABOUT THIS MOVIE.
The first half hour is nothing but close-ups of their face. The camera is practically shoved into their face. Even in a conversation, they'd have nothing but shots of their face. Even if they were running, they'd have shots of their face, a 2 second shot of their back, then back again to freakishly close shots of their face.
You can't even rely on the gore in the movie, because most of it isn't shown, and if it is, it looks so fake, there's no way you can get scared.
In the first part of the film, it was so obvious they used green screen. The lines were blurred, the scenes looked fake, it was like I was watching a Disney movie. Except I would have rather watched a Disney.
An hour in, and the movie was still playing. By this time, no one was watching except me so I can make an accurate review. At this point, it's nothing but running, violence that's not really violence, screaming and hitting.
You'd have to completely pay attention to this movie in order to understand what it's about but it's hard to even watch it for ten minutes.
This movie was so bad, I would have called it a comedy if not for the fact that it was put in the horror section of the movie rentals. Except, even the humour sucked so either way, it's a bad comedy and a bad horror film.
After seeing this i just wanna punch myself in the face for renting it, but i had some good laugh (due the bad acting) and because of that i rate it 2/10. And i apologize for bad spelling.
I am all for cheesy horror flicks and B-movies, but come on, there has to be drawn a line somewhere, and that line is LONG before this movie.
The acting is really horrible, but the thing that bothers me the most is the overall quality of the production. first of all, the music. It's almost none existent for the exception of a couple of tunes now and then. the sets, if you can call them sets are a bunch of green-screen footage, were you can literally see the lines, its so bad. Even scenes from inside the house is green screened.
Whatever you do, do not waste your time watching this horrible piece of film making. Save your money.
1/10, if I could I'd give it a 0/10.
To be honest, I don't know what the hell is going on with this movie. It's supposed to be a British version of 'The Crazies' with some 'Hills Have Eyes' and some Rob Zombie sprinkled on, but in the end, I see nothing funny or scary.
If these people want to make a horror movie, I suggest you go back to school and learn something. Because this is pretty stupid.
