Leslie Felperin Variety Dully predictable. May 21, 2008 Full Review Nathaniel Muir AIPT Nothing ever stands out as the plot and characters are predictable and generic. While never aggressively bad, it just is not worth the time. Rated: 5/10 Jul 24, 2020 Full Review Brian Orndorf BrianOrndorf.com A stillborn chiller and an awfully silly picture, boasting screamingly inept performances and preoccupied direction that spends more time seeking out the perfect camera angle than tightening the story to appropriate nail-biting levels of suspense. Rated: D Mar 4, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews
