Powerful

Must See Movie...

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Blistering performances.

Don't bother renting this. I wish I could say I hated it. I wish I could say I thought it was utter, horrible ... crap... But really... It's just... utterly forgettable.I should have known better than to rent a Lionsgate film without looking it up first, but so help me, I'm a sucker for horror. So. I rented it, brought it home. It deserves its low rating. I wasn't scared even once. I wasn't frightened, I did not empathize with the characters and I did not enjoy a moment of it. The main character is utterly unsympathetic, while both of his victims are, too. I stayed up late to watch this, hoping to see something decent. Instead, I was almost bored to sleep. It's not bad. There's no horrible, horrible acting, the lighting's well done, as is the audio. I'm not giving it 1 star because it's horrible. I'm giving it 1 star because it couldn't even creep me out a little during the most gruesome scene.

I had never heard of this movie, but I saw it in the rental store and it had a cool cover and interesting description. Besides, I'll watch anything because you never know when you'll find a treasure out there.Not this time! I agree with the other comments that this is one of the worst ever, and there's no way to blame it on the budget. Actually I think it has much more to do with a language barrier. This is a Japanese film - Japanese director, writer, cinematographer, crew - everyone but the main cast, one of which is a beautiful Japanese "actress". I get the impression that the writer simply had someone translate the script to English who either A) was not fluent in English or B) totally ignored the idiom of the target language. Why else would the main character keep apologizing to everyone he kills for killing them? Anyway, the film really isn't worth reviewing because it's so totally flawed and stilted. The few frights are equivalent to someone jumping out of a closet and yelling "BOO" - and then doing it over and over again in case you missed it the first time. I only wish video stores offered some sort of rental guarantee - didn't they used to? This is one of the few films I've ever rented for which I would ask for my money back.

ACTING was the pits. The leads had no connection. The story line has possibilities. With different actors might have given the movie of a chance. The flash backs did nothing for me. Some of the ghost scenes were impressive, considering it was a low budget film. The knocking from inside the trunk, Then as he turned around the sprit knocking on the window and chasing him down the road. Also when the trunk opens up and closes then blood covers the car and a face falls on to the windshield. They were the best of the so called scary scenes. Was it me? Who was that person.(The sprit). She did not look like either of the leads. How was she involved? I guess you you had a few drinks or a joint or two you could get into this movie.

From the beginning till the end of the movie no feeling of fear from horror and no good action scenes. It is one of the worse movies i have ever seen. The whole time plays the movie in the car of the killer. a little bit outside the car action things. I will forget this movie fast. Also the end is prediction to standard movies you will see. Overall feelings about this film is very bad that is also the reason i gave a '1' (awful) for this movie. Go see the movie and agree with me ;) This is my first comment for a movie. but 10 lines of comment is very much to give about this bad movie.I hope that my comment was useful.
