If ever a movie deserved to go directly to DVD, it's this dreary horror treatment.

Diehard horror fans may want to weigh in. The rest can see it soon at the video store.

The acting and dialogue is as silly as the potato sack the killer wears on his head.

Rated: 1.5/4

A low-budget, underseen genre gem that makes up for occasionally stilted dialogue and unpolished acting with a remarkable visual sense and skillful command of building tension.

Rated: 3/4

Eye for Film

retraces killing grounds so old and familiar that at times it seems little more than a fan boy's compendium of favourite moments from the last half century's worth of slash-and-dash mayhem.

Apesar da trilha de filme barato e dos dez minutos finais de projeo, que escancaram a falta de experincia do diretor-roteirista, o longa bastante eficiente em seu segundo ato.

Rated: 3/5

Look past the bad dialogue and screenplay, this plot would be unreal if remade today.

The only thing more laughable than the dialogue is the acting. There are a few movies that deserve a 0%, and this is one.

After a bank robbery goes awry, one of the desperate criminals takes a mother and daughter hostage and brings them to a remote house. Then the terror begins as the house was once the residence of a serial killer. Decent idea and a pretty well executed film.
