      Audience Member An under-rated thriller that is occasionally creepy. It didn't need a sequel though. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty decent Poe-like thriller. Feels like an extended episode of Tales from the Crypt. Minus the gore. It's a little tame, considering its coming from Darabont, but that's to be expected from an old TV movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/05/21 Full Review Audience Member This is a great film I think done about the same time as Cabin by the Lake. An interesting twist in Poe's take. Hoyt Axton as the sheriff is great and Mateheson/Leigh are wonderful. Best performance however is by Atherson who always manages to steal the show, ie Die Hard. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Underrated Horror a must watch ! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member I LOVE this Avenging Movie. William Atherton, Hoyt Axton help make this movie worthy. Jennifer Jason Lee is appropriately cast; however, anyone could have played her part. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member as plausible as count of monte cristo revenge flick Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Paul Freitag-Fey Daily Grindhouse One of the network's finest forays into features, even if, on paper, it seems like it would barely have enough plot to fill up a segment in a Creepshow sequel. Aug 5, 2019 Full Review Naila Scargill Exquisite Terror A required watch for fans of Frank Darabont, creator of The Walking Dead, if only to see what a difference 20 years can make.
