The character Terry. If you have seen this movie I should have to say no more. One of the most irritating characters in a horror movie I have ever witnessed. I could barely make it through this movie because every decision a character makes is unbelievable. The film is not scary or thrilling in the slightest. The twist ending was dumb and did not make it worth the effort of sitting through this terribly unoriginal piece of trash. I spent $8 so you don't have to. Seriously avoid this at all costs and watch Don't Breathe instead.
The premise isn't terribly original, but it's worth watch for the incredibly creepy performance of the actor who plays the old man, and it never got boring
I found it entertaining, predictable but still
it kept me wanting to continue watching...
I gave it five stars.. when I find a movie that can't keep my interest than I stop it!
This definitely kept me entertained and that's what movies are supposed to do!
This movie started off well with some great acting from all concerned; the bad guy was particularly vile and that boded well for a good bloodbath/massacre but it all went downhill rather quickly as nothing much except a bit of a drama out of a crisis unfolded with little to no real horror; more of a comedy with a bit of drama and a smidgin' of horror thrown in for good measure.
Sylvester McCoy makes the film and I have always liked him; even as Doctor Who as he brings a lot more to the table than most actors these days but all of the actors were really spot on but they just had nothing to really work with scriptwise and I don't know about anyone else but I figured out what was possibly behind the safe from the beginning so the mystery was gone for me quite early on.
Disappointed as it looked like this could be a rival to the USA Don't Breathe movie but it has absolutely nothing in common but it does get an average 5 hatchets out of 10 as it will fill an average Friday nights viewing.

This is only unpredictable if you've never watched anything else of the genre. It rips off Villains, poorly, but tries to have a twist ending. A twist that was as dumb as everything else.
Doesn't help that the third act was cropped to a 4:3 ratio for no discernable reason.
