Bloodline

I like horror films, and have seen my share of both good and bad. I admit I wasn't expecting too much when I picked up this Lions Gate title (I'd been burned before by some of their low-budget releases), but I try to see every horror film and I have to say this was much better than I expected. It looks good for a low budget movie -- it actually looks like it was shot on film? Hi-def maybe? I dunno -- but the story was different and not just a slasher flick. The acting was pretty good with Clay Adams giving a strong lead performance as Travis. It also had that girl from the show Hawaii -- Aya Sumika (pretty hot, wish she was in it more). Anyway, the time fractures made it seem a little like Memento mixed with Friday the 13th or something.

Looked like there were some budget constraints, but it held my interest and kept me guessing up to the end. It'd be cool to see if these guys do another one sometime with more money or bigger actors. Overall, a good effort and worth seeing.
