    Don't believe the reviews

    This is so bad! I thought by the reviews it might be ok but wow no it's not. Bad story and some of the acting is terrible

    Don't believe the reviews!

    The most over-rated movie ever !

    This is absolutely the most over-rated movie I have encountered in the 10+ ? years I have been using this site. Horrible script, tacky direction, etc. People MUST be getting really desperate for something to watch...

    dont bother

    Bad editing, slow and not in a good way lazy music and a plot that spends to much time sweating the small stuff instead of being focused. average student film fare

    Very Bad Acting

    In films like these we need to relate or like someone who is being terrorised but instead i hate all these characters . especially the hero is not at all a hero material...... poor acting
    4PickleSlapper

    Meh

    Cool idea for a monster. Some real cheese acting and bad set up story wise drag it down.
