Sorry, this movie sucks

Fresh and Exciting

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I watched Val Kilmer's The Traveler before this, and thought that was bad. No, this is bad. This is a prime example of a terrible film. There are no positive, redeeming factors to this film. I give credit to the two leading ladies, they do a good job in their parts. But everyone else in this film and the writing/directing is just absolutely horrid. I can't believe films like this get funded and created in Hollywood. I sometimes think myself or a neighbor should go write and direct a movie, as unqualified as we are- neither are the people behind this film. You could grab a random person off the street who could outdo this work. It's the type of waste of time that you fear when you pick a film to watch. I'm amazed people this unfit to make a film are able to get funding, put this out and make a dime on it at all. Hollywood needs a serious reboot all around and this is why.

This actually appeared on SyFy Channel. I am going to assume they only muted out the few words that I didn't hear and that was pretty much it. So I won't blame the channel for a poor edit. Pretty lame movie at the start quickly introducing us to two hot sisters who are supposed to be into comic books. Then we see them in the punk goth club for one last night out before they take a road trip heading towards more boredom than anything else.The plot "borrows" from many older movies where young adults breakdown, visit, and otherwise go where angels fear to tread. This is as old as the traveling salesman jokes. Tony Todd makes a few appearances in this movie, but he is not portraying anything scary as he has in his other movies. His character is more like a clown than a monster. I can only imagine his need for money and hope that no one actually watched this movie was his reason for taking the role.You can't feel anything for the characters since they never really develop during the movie. There is no sense of suspense, no horror, no chills, or thrills. In fact, one scene between actress Clare Grant and Bill Moseley in a school house has no impact on the movie as it really should. I wasn't quaking in fear that anyone was in danger. It felt more like a practical joke, as if Jillian Murray should have walked in and said, "Are you scared? Well you shouldn't be, because you're on Scare Tactics!".

I honestly wanted to like this movie, but I had to turn it off after awhile. It was that bad. I love Bill Moseley and was absolutely smitten with Clare Grant, who should be doing porn if she isn't already. Two sisters go on a road trip and end up in an old mining town where a killer lurks. There also may be a supernatural force at work. But I never got that far. As sexy as Grant was as the older of the two sisters, and as much fun as Moseley can be in any movie, this was so amateurishly made as to be a student film. Which it may well have been, for all I know. The acting is terrible, the plot goes nowhere that I could tell, and ... why bother to go on? Avoid this WRONG TURN/HILLS HAVE EYES/Texas CHAINSAW MASSACRE knockoff. Stick with the tried and true. But I gotta tell ya, Grant was incredibly hot. She's a natural. She's the kind we boys all had a turn with back in school, but didn't marry. She's the girl next door if you live next door to a strip club. I could watch Grant read the phone book for 90 minutes.

I would recommend this movie because Bill Mosely (Otis - House of 1,000 Corpses/Devil's Rejects) steals the show, he basically performs the same character he took on in Rob Zombie's films, a quick-witted, timeless quote saying killer. He'll leave fans of his awe struck and smiling, he really does a great job......but not even he can save this one crap mess of a movie. Now, this movie may have made it if it simply was about a family that owed a ghost town attraction, and killed the visitors. Seems like Bill Mosely stuff, and the two other family members are iconic in their own right. But they all quickly die off, and this movie becomes about a town full of looneys and a soulful preacher controlled by some sort of demon that attracts flies. The acting is pretty horrible, the special effects are extremely fake, the storyline his horribly, horribly written, and most of all, there are production mistakes (you can even see the studio microphone clear as day in one shot...yes, the entire microphone!!!) This movie is just a very bad B-movie, that somehow got the budget to include top name actors like Bill Mosely, Jillian Whoever (Jigsaw's wife), and a couple other mentionables. It's absolutely boring, and like I said, only the time we see Bill is when the movie takes off, and when he dies, it goes down with him!
