    I made it 8 minutes

    I got exactly 8 minutes in (line is 'Noooooooo let me goooooo') and it's unwatchable. I like bad horror movies, trust me. I like schlocky, low budget slashers, hokey ghost stories, silly zombie movies- but this is not even bad in a good way. It's just bad. How do movies like this even get made? It's like a freshman film student's midterm project or something. I've seen better acting in porno movies. One highlight is the lady doing the weather on tv- yikes. Honestly, there are thousands of good (and bad) movies out there that are watchable and worth your time. Not this. Cutting my losses at 8 minutes. You've been warned.

    This is a terrible movie!!!

    Im not really sure how this movie is rated so high on IMDb. It's really bad. The acting, the writing... really bad. If you don't believe me then rent it and see for yourself. It's bad

    Good storyline, terrible acting

    This movie had potential to be a good movie. The storyline is good, but the acting is so terrible it ruined the whole thing. The acting is so bad it's hard to watch.

    no

    My own fault, I knew what I was getting into but at the beginning in the car caught my interest and I gave it a chance. As soon as heard an actor say "just like old times" I knew it was going to disappoint. I continued as far as I could. I honestly tried to keep watching it even after I heard the other "actors" speak in the house. It was like they had no acting experience at all,not a single one of the six. The background music was terrible and the movie seemed to be filmed by a high school student trying to get an art credit. Incredible as it progressed it got worse. The movie would be suitable for a Drive In theater for laughs or ignoring if you are a new couple. Final verdict was I shut it off at 14 minutes and 12 seconds,I didn't want to know what happens next .

    Yikes....its bad, BUT!

    The opening credits' dark synth music was good to me. Movie is not my cup of tea. Not going to slam it, it has to be good to someone.... On Sullivan's Movie Scale it is a solid 1.5/7.
