    What a joke!

    Disclaimer: I watch anything with Lance Henriksen, knowing most movies he is in will be lousy. Favorite show ever: Millennium. This was so bad, that I didn't stay around to watch him. When the main (idiot) character starts saying "who's there", you know the script is trash. What do they expect? "It's me the serial killer". Any horror movie, regardless of lousy, I give the benefit of the doubt IF IT DOES not have anyone that stupid.

    BRING THE OLD NATASHA HENSTRIDGE BACK!!

    Yet another dumb copycat movie...the beginning was a copycat to the remake of 'Friday the 13th'...REALLY? But not only that but other horror movies too like 'Halloween' and 'when a stranger calls' and I must say the blood in this film looked so fake. And yet a third or fourth film in 2 years Natasha Henstridge was in it for little moments...and her being in these low budget films is destroying her career including her acting skills because if she was still in high budget movies like she was years ago her acting skills would had stayed better in a straight line...and she started off the same way as 'Charlize Theron' did all those years ago but Hollywood took Natasha down the wrong road over in time which was silly because she was great back in the 90s to early 2000s. But yea this film sucked so bad.

    Lets make a sorta halloween knock off! Why?

    For a film with at least some of the cast you might actually of heard of this is a very forgettable flick writing this review 10 minutes after watching it and can't remember a single characters name! Nowhere near a 10 rating but watchable on a free stream!

    Predictable horror killed with atrocious sound design

    I love indie horror movies and i have seen alot of them over the years.

    I always expect less than subpar audio and video, so when that is done well that its always a huge plus. This movie however has the distinction to have the most annoying and irritating score and sound design i have heard in a movie. All supense is killed with dreadful bass tone and overbearing music.

    Pushing the volume to 11 to try to fix the obvious flaws of the movie(script, acting, direction) just made everything even more awful. With less is more approach the movie might have been more entertaining but unfortunately that did not happen.

    I have not seen other movies by this director, but if he has the same sound team i will avoid them.

    Straight out bad

    It's a bad movie.

    Even if we consider that it is an indie, low budget movie, that is not enough to justify the bad quality of the story or the terrible (terrible, terrible) acting. I can forgive the bad effects, but that's it.

    Also, it's not scary at all. It's predictable, boring... not even in a funny way.

    The only good comments must be from someone related to the actors or director or such.

    It's good that it's short... so you didn't waste a lot of time in it.
