Am I Missing Something?

A Major Disappointment

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

After accidentally witnessing a serial killer's brutal murder of a policeman, she must race to get herself and her daughter out of the killer's path before his blood-soaked rampage includes them as well.This was a really disjointed horror/thriller that doesn't have a whole lot going for it at all. Despite an incredibly rousing opening about the Mexican Day of the Dead celebrations that are quite colorful and provide a unique look at the celebration, but after that isn't quite so exciting since the majority of the film deals with the chasing down of the lone witnesses to the detriment of all other happenings, so there's going to be a lot wrong with this. The first one is that the lack of victims means there's very little blood or gore, despite the initial murder sequence being one of the more bloody ones shown. There's also the fact that the film is incredibly one note, detailing her merely escaping and hiding only to repeat the process ad nauseam until the movie's over which is quite boring after a while and really leaves this one without anything going on in the middle parts of the movie with the same set-up repeating over-and-over. It's got a couple good chases, but not a whole lot else.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Language and children-in-jeopardy.

The opening sequence is pretty interesting because it shows La Santa Muerte (The Holy Death which is a non-recognized saint in México; a Skeleton dressed as a Virgin). Then, the next scene features a colorful sugar skull (very common in México's typical celebration Day of the Dead) and then the camera pans to the ocean. There's a hint that Manuel Ojeda will be a villain or important character but the truth is that he only comes to be a crazy man who presumably knows when will Death come.Then we meet the principal character, Erika (played by the super hot Christian Bach) and her beautiful young daughter.There isn't much to know about this movie except that it tries to be a Thriller with Horror elements. For example, there's some good gore and decent chase sequences.The best scene when it comes to gore in the movie is when the "Man In White" (Daniel Stephen) shots a cop and blows his brains out while Erika and her daughter watch. Well, after that Erika and her daughter are chased through the highway and the beach by this "serial killer" or whatever he is. Please imagine a younger Terminator chasing a mother and her daughter and you have seen the whole movie.The production values are mediocre and so is the ending which features Omar Fierro as Erika's husband. The only good sequences deal with the beautiful beach and Christian Bach wearing a spectacular sexy bikini.Please avoid this movie at all costs. Nothing good to say about it.
