I'm honestly not exaggerating when I say this may be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I've seen low budget slasher flicks and student films that were better than this.

Some dodgy acting. Terrible dialogue. Characterisation was poor so I really didn't care whether anyone in the film died or not, even with the added cliche of throwing a child into the mix to try to elicit some sympathy.

It fails in pretty much everything it tries to do/be. Scary? Nope. Tense? Not at all. Funny? Only unintentionally. Hitchcock-like? HELL no. Message? Buy an Adidas tracksuit and an iphone? That's the only message I spotted.

Only positive things I can say about this are the cinematography was decent and the film reminded me to water my plants ; )

3/10
