Day 13

For starters, for the love of God will somebody please send hollywood some real light bulbs!? Every single movie made today is "lit" in the exact same way - with light bulbs that are dimmer than 4 watt night light bulbs! In one scene, the main character is reading and the only light in the room was a light on his desk. Even with that on, the entire room was almost pitch black. Other scenes were filmed om complete darkness where you just have to guess what's going on. Plus, apparently in 2022, people are still using candles as illumination! :eyeroll:

Outside of that, there are so many plot holes, the whole thing is like swiss cheese. The main character is using what looks like a night vision camera - judging by the characteristic green tint of the image - yet it uses a visible light source. Not only would that overpower the night vision optics, but it would defeat the whole purpose of using night vision in the first place - stealth!

The "mother" in this story should have her kids taken away from her. Apparently she leaves her teenage kids home alone for two weeks because she needs some time away with just her and her girl friends. She's never heard from again. Apparently, she can't even be bothered to call home and check on her kids.

And I want to know where this kid is getting his stuff ordered from. He must shop at the same place Wile E. Coyote uses because he was going online, buying surveillance equipment, and installing it that same day! I mean, even Amazon ain't that fast!

I won't give anything away, just in case you decide, for some reason to watch this train wreck, but just know that the last three minutes of the movie are about the most interesting in the whole thing!

No pun intended - sometimes we mean well and do bad. Who am I referring too? Well you have to watch to find out. Though I am certain that most will know - quite early when watching this. It is a binary thing in a way. Of course there is more to it and the end offers something in a sense .. not sure if it is enough to make you like the movie though.

You have to have a heart for horror movies to say the least. It does look good when it comes down to the cinematography and all that. But this is to be expected with newer movies. The effects are not too great, but this is a low budget so that should be something you know. Know what this is and do not expect more. Even better suspend your disbelief to a degree that makes you enjoy watching this ... maybe you are a fan of Martin Kove for example ... hold on to that.

This movie had potential, it really had that rear window feel...mysterious neighbor moves in across the street and it happens to be a pretty girl who looks by all means to be a prisoner of her own home by her abusive step-father. Has some good suspense and close calls. The acting was good and I was really getting into it...until the movie ended. How can a movie with good actors and a good plot be ruined by very lame and cheesy CGI. Honestly the worst. I hope I didn't give away too much, but it's hard to describe without giving away some details. 3.6 I think is spot on for this film. It's not a movie I'd watch again or recommend. Peace.

This movie is pretty good but is ruined by using CGI when they obviously didn't have the budget to do so. The other major flaw was that the filmmakers' attempts at foreshadowing were heavy handed and gave away what could have been a surprise ending.

This film had the makings of a solid low-budget horror flick. Solid acting and filming. But a lousy, scattered script. It's watchable...but just barely.
