I cannot even begin to explain how utterly disappointed I was with this film. Film is not even a word that can describe the atrocity of this HorrorFest movie. I saw that it featured Gabrielle Anwar. And I suppose that because I saw her …

This movie is film making at its worst. The plot was weak and at many times didn’t make much sense. We learn the “twist” in the first twenty minutes of the movie! There is no drama build up to the twist like a good suspense movie, …
