Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
... View MoreThe thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

... View MoreTrish Burchall(Kelly McGillis) is a small town radio news reporter raising two daughters Lisa(Kate Elliott)and Amy(Emily Barclay). This nice, sleepy rural community has been targeted by a serial killer. Not only does he stalk young girls; he has no remorse in murdering entire families. The killings continue and the local sheriff Joe Webster(Barry Corbin)begs Trish to go on the air in hopes of providing calm and not alarming the citizens. The newswoman starts putting clues together and realizes that she and her daughters may be next on the killers to-do-list. Bad acting and predictability hurt this project. Some tense scenes, but nothing to really shiver over. This whodunit is close to being a who cares. Also in the cast: Tom Huntington, Kieren Hutchison, Daniel Gillies and Geoff Dolan.
... View MoreMaybe one of the worst things ever done! If you could read the script just once, you'd realise it's absolutely nonsense. But, as far a movie can go, I now use it with my students to show them ALL the things you shouldn't do! And that's pretty difficult. So, just let me add this: camera angles, lighting, plot, music, acting and directorial skills are nonexistent. What about that? It's a class in itself and I doubt anyone will ever make anything as bad... ever!Think about TV and film production. How much money did they spend in lighting this film... a lot! just because they wanted it to happen at night. But... night? It just comes and goes no matter the time of day!It's amazing how much money you can spend and how badly your product will come out. What I can't believe is that it made it to a DVD release. Who paid for this? If I was the writer or director or producer, I'd never dare to risk my neck!
... View MoreThis movie had me laughing the whole time. Unfortunately, it's not suppose to be a comedy. Craig Parker did a wonderful job as the overeager Deputy Henley but the rest of the movie isn't worth seeing. I would compare it to a bad "Lifetime" movie, but worse. I don't know why it's considered a thriller because I would not be thrilled to have to see this movie again. It takes every cheesy cliché from every other thriller movie and uses them over and over again. None of the actors were American so I don't see why it needed to be set in America just so they could all murder the accent. Sometimes they even forgot which side of the road to drive on. It's just... the list of bad things about this movie could go on forever.
... View MoreWhy would anyone waste perfectly good film for something this bad is beyond me. The only reason I watched this movie through is that I was unable to leave my bed at the time. The acting's horrible, but that's not the problem. The music's lousy, but that is also not the problem. The problem is this: there isn't one original scene, one original idea, one comprehensible line of dialogue or one believable character in the whole messy 90 minutes of it. To quote my beloved "Singin' in the rain" - DID SOMEBODY ACTUALLY GET PAID FOR WRITING THIS? The movie is an incomprehensible mess, a hastily stuck together bunch of clichés. Don't bother. In fact, discourage others from watching. You'll be doing them a favour.
