Will viewers brave a second viewing and relive the routine slasher-thriller mayhem, unintentional comedy and atrocious soundtrack to catch all the clues foreshadowing the clever twist ending? Go to Full Review

...an ambitious yet wholly misguided horror effort. Go to Full Review
Brian Holcomb Beyond Hollywood 04/18/2008
A throwback to the salad days of regional horror filmmaking, when a Romero in Pittsburgh, or a Herk Harvey in Utah could create a movie that was not easily forgotten. Go to Full Review

O desfecho interessante e Lewis uma protagonista razovel, mas o filme se torna excessivamente repetitivo depois dos primeiros 40 minutos. Go to Full Review

It's a low-budget, low-impact, low-quality horror flick with a cool idea that simply doesn't withstand being stretched over 90 minutes. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Feels a whole lot like a rock-solid short film that was streeeeetched into feature length without adding the components than a 90-minute movie requires. Go to Full Review

Gretta G Aug 31 I also don't understand the low score on this movie. As a lifelong horror movie buff, this movie instantly became one of my all time favorites when the end credits rolled. It is a clever psychological horror that will leave you stunned. Yes it's low budget, and some of the acting less than star quality, but the story is fascinating and leaves you guessing until the very end. One thing I would like to point out is that I watched this movie for the first time alone at night, and as a female found the beginning of the movie extremely disturbing and felt Claire's sense of fright. Which, in my opinion, makes for a terrific horror movie! See more Undetected A Mar 24 I really don’t get where all the hate for this film is coming from. I mean if any of you so called “reviewers” actually watched horror flicks more than once every 16 years you would know, that although very cheaply made, this film reaches almost a mystical feeling. With its clever storyline, terrifying premise, and relatable characters. It is the definition of a hidden gem. I first saw the film as a child and felt drawn to finding it again. Amongst the explosion in senseless violence that the genre has mostly been embarrassing itself with those last few years. This title right here, although modest, is making all the right moves and culminates as an unforgettable experience. See more Andy G 12/29/2023 A hidden gem. Nothing new but done really well. See more 06/03/2016 The camera quality is so poor that it actually made me kind of nostalgic for the days when I was a film student. And it's hard to get past that, but if you can, there's a semi-decent horror flick waiting for you buried in here. See more 11/29/2015 Clever ending and well acted by Lewis; aside from that, it drags a bit. Had there been more clues leading to the ending, it likely would have been elevated a bit. See more 09/29/2015 I was surprised this became one of all time favorite movies. Low budget B movie with pretty good acting and a killer twist! A little bit of a mind bender, but the ending ties it all together perfectly. See more Read all reviews
