The movie looks like a draft of a movie. It's lacking all the parts where you'd normally go " Ahh ok !" So much is left unsaid that you have to make your own story with the 2 or 3 details they do tell us. The girl has a certain charm and is not a bad actress. That can't be said for all the other actors in this "movie"
There was potential for this movie, but the story was just way too shallow. Sean and Taylor King just never developed it enough. The end result is once done, you can't help feeling "what's the point?". Another waste by amateurs.
So we start this one off with a Pawnee myth? And a boat.
And then....confusion, as some girl stares out at a lake, dances around the house, CLOTHED...boring, and walks around an island trying to get a signal on her phone. Uh oh, then she meets malingering old hillbilly on the dock.
Then girl is apparently being stalked. Then weird girl goes out and gets startled by Mort the hillbilly...who decides to come up behind her and grab her shoulder rather than call out to her? -1 star for dumb.
Okay now so she catches this guy Michael walking into her house holding a hammer. And eventually she puts him down. Finally.
Then one month later...She's doing her dancing act again around the house and docks and wherever....and gee...what a lame ending. -1 Star. 3/10.

I don't normally write reviews but if I can save at least one person from watching this mind numbingly ridiculous garbage, then writing this will be worth it.
So many plot holes, they don't explain anything about anything...
I'd rather eat the stale mouldy popcorn that's stuffed between my couch cushions and watch sharknado than watch this ever again.

Samantha's grandparents are found murdered in their little house on a tiny island. Samantha inherits, and she goes to live there. The tiny seaside town has many small islands, where people have their homes.
In order to get to the house, they must use a boat.
We learn nothing of the grandparents, or any other of Samanthas family or history. She just turns up at the house, and starts living there. No one is interested in why the old folks died, and they are never mentioned.
The town people are hostile towards the newcomer, and wants her to leave. (Yawn) We are not told why that is. She doesn't bother anyone, where she is.
She discovers that someone has been in her house, and she is so laid back about the whole situation that its ridiculous.
Normal reaction for any sane human being, would have been fear or terror. You are alone on an island, where two people have been killed. And someone is clearly stalking you in your home. That should create some emotions!
The ending, and lack of explanation to anything, ruins what could have been a nice thriller. We are not given any motive for why the person does what s/he does. And even more annoying, there are literally only two suspects. Yup, there are three other actors in this movie, but one of them is taken care of, leaving only two suspects.
The ending sucks big time, with even more irrational behaviour from Samantha.
And why did they have to name the sheriff Sam?
No horror, no supernatural, no sex, no nudity, no profanity.
