- Gimly★ 4/10
Sure, it's dumb, and it's predictable, but it's those things in the sort of way that your high-tolerance-horror-fans can still put up with. I'll never re-watch it though. Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product.
- Rodney Wollam★ 3/10
So many despicable characters. Is it wrong that I was rooting for the killer?
