    Just dumb.

    Comes off as something of a mindless slasher because it is both; mindless and a slasher film.

    Plot is a straight line point a to point b...never deviating from its " scarred up guy in green jacket" killing for some odd reason. Doesn't rely on jump scares as much as it suffers from terribly mundane story with Jason/Michael-esque kills. Zero story. Terrible acting. Looks like it was made as a film school project funded by a failed Kickstarter. Hard pass.

    What a joke!

    Disclaimer: I watch anything with Lance Henriksen, knowing most movies he is in will be lousy. Favorite show ever: Millennium. This was so bad, that I didn't stay around to watch him. When the main (idiot) character starts saying "who's there", you know the script is trash. What do they expect? "It's me the serial killer". Any horror movie, regardless of lousy, I give the benefit of the doubt IF IT DOES not have anyone that stupid.

    Once Again, Consider the Cluster of 10's...

    Before I watch any flick (or movie, using the latter term for what is worth watching) I check IMDB scores, looking carefully at the lowest scores as they are usually the most honest. Here we have a lot of 10's and high praises associated with those, all given in one month...these are clearly an the result of a pity party attempting to pump up the score for this atrocity. Go with the lowest scores; those are the honest ones. If it weren't for the fake 10's I might have given this a generous "3" but the pathetic attempt to deceive the audience made me drop the score to a "1".

    Lets make a sorta halloween knock off! Why?

    For a film with at least some of the cast you might actually of heard of this is a very forgettable flick writing this review 10 minutes after watching it and can't remember a single characters name! Nowhere near a 10 rating but watchable on a free stream!
