    So bad

    I really wish they would quit making these generic movies. The acting is bad, storyline is poorly written. Do they really need to portray the high school students come off so insensitive and disrespectful to teachers? Do we always need to see high school students showing up at school and hot pants or looking like they're going out clubbing? No one can can go to school dressed like this, so dispense with the over-sexuality of teenagers, so that you can focus on better acting and storyline. Overall, I could not enjoy because of it's too hokey of a typical storyline, I've seen dozens of times, mixed with less than subpar acting.

    Don't waste your time

    This is generic and bad even for that. The acting was awful. Plot terrible. What mother doesn't realize she hasn't seen her daughter in TEN YEARS? This was just ridiculous on top of ridiculous. If you literally have nothing else to do, including watching paint dry, sure watch this.

    Most dangerous public activity

    Yes, being cheerleader is leading activity in percentage of murdered participants. No wonder, so many movies dealt with this problem. This one is less known, but would not say that is worse than average of this 'gender'.

    Ella Cannon is the star, and she was fine. From some reason, none of younger cheerleaders looked so attractive. There was nothing really new in whole story, and must admit that would be surprised if it was the case. Everything 'promised' was delivered: nice legs, discovering who is the killer.

    Couple smaller twists, and that would be all what can say about this in fact good, simple entertainment movie.

    This is a very good movie.

    This is a very good movie it is very scary. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. It is very scary. It has a great story line. It is one of the scariest movie I have seen. If you do like this movie it is because you do not knew good horror movie when you see it.

    Tense, bloody, and creepy - yet enjoyable to watch!!

    This was an unusually bloody and graphic LMN movie - some of the scenes really shocked me.

    The reveal of the killer was a real surprise - I did not expect it!

    The ending reminded me of a "Scooby Doo" episode and the final scene with mother and daughter was poignant.
