Simply Perfect
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
The film follows your classic home break-in formula with bad guy terrorizes home owner, home owner gets upper hand and terrorizes invader, then a fight to the death. Sorry for the plot spoiler if you have never seen a home break-in film. There are some minor twists from the norm, but really doesn't bring anything unique to the table. I thought the acting and dialog could have been better. Low budget, okay for the genre, but there are far better. Kill Bill child actor Perla Haney-Jardine as an adult. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
This movie was fantastic. I don't wanna give away any spoilers but it definitely grips you from start to finish with crazy twists and turns. IFC never disappoints. Their movies are scary and well worth the money.
Its actually pretty amazing, that this crew made a movie with this kind of cinematic quality, when they didnt give two sharts about the story or character development. Its a clusterfuck of medium-filmmaking, and poor writing - trying to corrolate the few good ideas they have. It could have been made in a day, and then edited into something else.99% dark mushy out-of-focus scenes, "stolen" shots from other horror movie and classic, and the most unrealistic farfetched, stupid plot for a horror movie in a genre, that HAS to be realistic, to be scary.English is not my first language, i dont care about grammar much. The only thing that mattered was counterattacking the stupid review from the crew. 9/10, my ass. NOTHING in this movie is remotely interesting and none of the character are believable in any way. Every situation leads to a slap in your own face, and you wonder if you should give up, or what the last 50 minutes.DONT WAIT FOR THE GOOD ENDING, that saves most shitty horrors/thrillers. It is not there.
Great story, suspenseful ambience, creepy piano score - it's got it all! But seriously, a gripping, edge-of-your seat flick with solid performances particularly from late entrant Ward Horton.
