7/10
Decent slasher with good kills, ....

...n a supernatural touch to it, with good character development n picturesque cinematography. I was really excited to see this film. Had read somewhere that the extended clip of this film was released way back in 2013. Been on my watch list for a very long time. Finally bought a pirated dvd. I think that my dvd is a different version as the scene (the killer in yellow jacket chasing a female in broad day light n piercing her palm) shown in the You Tube trailer is not there. Considering that this is Nick Jongerius debut film (Producer of Frankenstein's Army), he did a decent job. I skipped his Frankensteins Army as m not a fan of hand held camera stuff. Well this is not a great film but not bad either. Horror fans may like it. Slasher fans will enjoy it more. It has shades of Hatchet part one, Jeepers Creepers part one. Some solid gore n killings. Being a debut film, it did showed the director's lack of creating suspense n tension. But he managed to develop the characters well. It has lovely cinematography by Bart Beekman. The only thing I did not dig was that of the marine's "sin". Wasn't it an accident? Also the doctor's? Can someone explain plz.
