This movie makes no sense. At all.

A hapilly married realtor's son is kidnapped. The realtor, our heavily hair-gelled protaginist, sort of reminds me of Lou Reed. Maybe that's why I wasted 45 minutes trying to watch this.

The kidnapping of the kid. By whom? Why? We don't know. Did the parents call the police as an opening scene with a 911 call suggests? Who knows? We're given conflicting information.

Dad is given a ridiculously odd task by the kidnappers: kill six random people of his choosing in an allotted timeframe to get his son back. Huh? Why? But, ok, he's in - because that's what good dads do. Kill other parents of children.

He has an open house at an ugly, dated home and decides to kill people that come to see it. Will he make it?

I had to bail out before he got the six. It was just too bad to watch any longer.

The ending might explain the kidnapping and odd requirement. I'll never know and I'm totally ok with that. Don't waste your time.
