      Andy J Reasonable idea but could have been executed better. Unpleasant characters so don't care too much what happens to them. Somewhat confusing at times. Just about maintained interest though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/13/21 Full Review Audience Member It was a mix bag of drama-horror-gore, the premise was interesting but the acting was something to be questioned about. It starts off slow and cheesy dialogues makes it look so cheap and modest like a TV movie. The acting as mentioned is not up to the par, but they had a half[-baked amusing plot with overhasty direction and that is the sole reason why this film wasn't made so well. The cinematography was acceptable and the location was spooky. Overall, it was fun in the end a low budget piece notwithstanding, it is simply average go for me. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Just shy of so bad its good. Its very dumb. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting at the begining but not scary ans vert poor in thé middle of thé movie Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review don s This is one of the most uninspired, unoriginal supernatural horror movies I've seen. There are no scares (not even the jump variety), no tension is built, no cool slayings, not much gore factor; very little mayhem occurs on screen - this could have been rated PG-13 if not for the voluminous blood flow in one scene. The lifeless acting is scarier than the movie. Total crap from AfterDark. Sad. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member it was fine; similar to any of the "can you survive the night" type of film Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
