This film has a lot going for it. By far, it's one of the most entertaining David DeCoteau films in years. 1). The cast is flawless. In the commentary track, DeCoteau mentioned he wanted his three original scream queens. That would have been a big mistake. These three ladies are far better actors, their chemistry is evident, and it all works. 2) The script is good. It's refreshing to hear dialog that sounds natural. The writer is far better than the one the director usually hires. 3) The location. Good riddance to that over-shot 1313 house. This place is a welcome change. 4) The puppet is effective and scary. A clown was a great choice. It worked. 5) The pacing is what you'd expect from a horror film. And, of course, the guys are hot as hell but that's what you'll find in any DeCoteau film. RapidHeart needs to make more films like this one!
