Just saw a few minutes of this tour de force in horrible acting. This is a bad B-Movie trying to revive a common remade rehashed familiar story. I'm so glad I didn't invest more time.
Judge Rheingold has aged.... really aged. And he can't wipe that grin off his face even when the scary things were supposed to be happening. He seems like he thinks he's still on the set of Beverly Hills Cop and plays the same character. It's quite hilarious to watch tense moments lightened up by the Judge trying to act scared but not being able to pull it off not even for a moment.
But the show is stolen by Stacey Keach. I can't even say his acting was bad. Still has the deep voice but that script... OMG.... that script. Horrible. He must be paying off some big debts to red the lines and try to pull it off.
The ending could not be more predictable and laughable. I mean could it have been done more often? I really don't think so. And if you're looking to be scared, you'll laugh at loud at the scary scenes. I'm guessing they ran out of money in the budget and decided that they needed the old "cutaway" shots so that you can fill it all in yourself. I wish I could even give this a star for something but I can't find anything redeeming.
