It's obvious there's people close to the film or paid by them to boost the ratings of this film. The same cookie cutter positive reviews that have no relation to reality.
This film is D U L L. Beyond slow. Nothing happens. Loooooong scenes where the main character walks to the phone...walks to her car....walks to her room. She doesn't even get to the "scary" house until 45 minutes in.
Then it's another half hour of her walking around the house...walking to the phone...walking upstairs...walking to the kitchen.
That's it. The great Mary Woronov is wasted, showing up for two minutes. The other actors, also less than two minutes. You watch an uninteresting skinny teen walk...and walk...and walk.
No suspense. None. Predictable.
No mystery. None. Predictable.
And no horror. None. The last 15 minutes have some weak gore, cookie cutter villains, and a "mystery" we predicted from the start...
...and minor attempts at action that make no sense. A girl goes from knocked out from drugs to squirming tied up to free and beating the three bad guys all by herself...all within two minutes.
So an ending that's insulting, confusing, and leaves the viewer feeling angry and cheated.
Avoid at all costs. I started fast forwarding by two minutes at a time after the first 20 minutes, and still felt bored and upset that this film wasted 40 minutes of my time.
