This cheapish horror movie mashes up two decent ideas - Jumanji and Final Destination - and comes up with a group of young people being eliminated one by one in accordance with fates predetermined in a board game.
Eliza Dushku is the biggest name in the cast (which, considering how the promise shown by her TV roles has parlayed into increasingly indifferent horror movies, is probably a telling comment about this one). Second on the list is Mike Vogel. That's right, Mike Vogel. Right.
I said "cheapish" - there are some nice props and a decent explosion. a no-name cast, and little money left for CGI which is presumably why (please excuse spoiler) dragonfly lady emerging from the sea is so badly executed.
I won't say "avoid it", but I certainly won't say "seek it out" either.
