    Really??? This is someone's idea of a good movie??

    I don't want to spend too much time writing this review... I've already wasted enough time watching this trash! Not the worst movie in the world, but really not good. The high school script, the convoluted plot, the amateurish acting.. nope, no redeeming value here at all. Find something - anything - to do rather than waste time with this garbage

    Going against the grain but I loved it.

    Unsure why so many bad reviews. It wasn't bad. Bats well above it's current rating of 3.3.

    I think a few reviewers missed the nuances in the early stages of the film.

    You knew who he was but there were still a couple of twists at the end.

    Watched it again to pick up the clues I missed first time around.

    Well well well

    This movie surprised me, I wasn't expecting it to be entertaining. Sure, it could have been done better, Tommy Nash was creepy. Worth a watch.

    Movie was decent. Lead was horrible.

    This was a good movie with decent premise. 30 minutes in I almost wanted to turn the movie off. Not cause of the movie, but the lead actor is deplorable. Horrible acting and trying WAY too hard. If he wasn't the lead I would've given the 6/10 stars

    It was OK

    I'm not a fan of scary movies. But this was ok. Not the best script or acting with the exception of the actress who plays Brittany - she was alright. I think if you follow the breadcrumbs left you could work out the ending. Entertaining in its own way.
