Scar

Maybe it's because I share a birthday with Angela Bettis but I tend to like things she's in more than a lot of people.

Whatever the reason (secretly I think it's the gore factor) I enjoy this movie.

If you're after great acting then this isn't the place however I really like the story.

Not for those with a weak constitution.

A cop gets murdered in his own car, then the killer breaks into the house, kills the other cop, kidnaps the niece, and even waits to be seen by Joan across the street, and the other cops still can't figure out who it is. Classic plot involving idiot cops, stealthy killer, and falsely accused underdog...until she ends up solving the whole thing.

Lets just say I won't be leaping out of my seat and saying this is the most awesome movie ever, although I did like the movie and it did have a few unnerving scenes that were tough to look at especially if you're squeamish, what I mainly don't like is that its just another addition to the ever popular torture porn trend, if you look at films like SAW & HOSTEL, this will pretty much seem like a by the numbers gore fest, that doesn't offer anything new except a collection of gore and some painful torture scenes, which are painful actually.

The concept itself is pretty good, there was definitely a lot of potential there, and the acting was above par for a film of this standard.

Its good because it certainly has the concept, but in fact its not that great because if you know SAW & HOSTEL, which I'm sure every horror fan knows, this one will feel pretty much by the numbers.

Mediocre warmed over torture-porn that isn't particularly awful, it's competent enough. But it's not that compelling I lost interest far before the boring little grue-fest movie ended. Some of the cast had been in much better genre film, Angela Bettis in the much superior "May" and Titus in the cult classic "Killer Klowns from Outer Space", both of which are much more worthy of your valuable time than this dreary number.

In the interest of full disclosure, seeing this on Netflix, it obviously wasn't the 3-D version, but I strongly feel it wouldn't affect my scoring of the movie that much

I just realize that my title/summary could be confused with my rating. It wasn't my intention. Originally I would've given the movie a 5/10, but in the end (of the movie), I was more disappointed by the opportunities it missed, than the not so bad 3-D things it had (although once you watch a 3-D movie in an IMAX theater, there's nothing that can compare to that experience).

The movie is standard horror fare, so to speak, with some nice actors (some beautiful, some talented). I even liked the fact, that the movie didn't try to squeeze a big 3-D moment from every scene. It would have annoyed me. On the other hand, I heard people complain, that it didn't really make much of it's 3-D. So there you go, two sides of a coin. Depends on which side you will look then.
