Film Threat

Artik does make the combination work, but it just needed a little more character building and better audio for it to be pretty damn good.

Rated: 6/10

[Tom Botchii] Skowronski knows how to grab and hold the viewer's attention and he doesn't need to rely on shock or on clever twists to make it happen.

Great horror movie . Love the line “whatever you fear most, it’s coming for you”. The lead serial killer character could not have been anymore perfect for the role . Don’t know what that says about him as a person, but for the movie A++. 3.8

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Giving it two stars for concept. Music was off and was trying to sound creepy at times or in scenes that didn't call for it. I wasn't floored by the performance of any lead.

Different and interesting - the film shows a really demented raising of a boy by a family that's twisted by violence.

Not very good. It had potential, but blew it after the first third. Pass.
