Well, I can't help but be partial...but honestly, seriously...this is the most effective horror thriller I have seen in recent years. You don't even feel the low budget...the acting is top notch, very natural, and extremely credible. I'm in love with Brooke Peoples.
The pacing is a tad shaky at first, and I wasn't sure where exactly the movie was going but once it got its feet planted, the tension was absolutely gripping. Nick Smith is a very good director for his first effort and though he borrows some elements from different films and filmmakers, he shows he has command of the camera and the scene.
The ending is a bit anti-climactic but the last shot is going to put a smile on the face of anybody who likes mystique and appreciates something that can be openly interpreted.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film and recommend it to anyone who wants to have a scary good time. It's great timing for October, and it's a great date movie. The character of Joe (Peoples) is very believable and I think she's the character that really holds the "teenage" characters together.
Bruce Davison is a veteran and holds together the "other" plot of the cop who's tracking an escaped killer that might have a connection to Munder Road.
I really hope this kid has a bright future because he definitely shows he has talent, and he certainly loves the horror genre. Forget the Hollywood bullshit that's going to come out this month (and I don't even care to try "The Woman in Black", whenever that comes out). This is worth your time.
