An average movie

For some reasons, I ended up watching this flick in the movie theater with a chick I knew and, looking back, I seriously wonder why we decided to pick up this flick. Anyway, it is basically a really unremarkable slasher flick which could be almost considered as a remake of ‘The Texas Chainsaw Massacre’. The only point of interest would be to have such charming actresses like Eliza Dushku and Emmanuelle Chriqui on the screen but even them couldn’t really save this flick. I mean, it wasn’t really awful but I just really didn’t care about the whole thing. Apparently, it was actually quite successful on DVD and, therefore, they launched quite an impressive franchise with no less than 5 direct-to-dvd sequels (obviously, I haven’t seen any of them and I’m not planning to). Eventually, the director Rob Schmidt would direct another thriller called 'The Alphabet Killer', starring once again Eliza Dushku and, even though it was still rather underwhelming and even cheaper to look at, at least, it developped a few interesting ideas about a cop slowly becoming insane. Anyway, coming back to our main feature, I think it is a really weak horror flick and I don’t think it is really worth a look, except maybe if you are a die-hard fan of the genre.
