Disappointingly mediocre

I was honestly really excited for this because I'm generally a fan of the slasher genre, but this was absolutely lackluster. It's not suspenseful and not at all exciting. I know people in these movies are supposed to be stupid, but the kids here are dumber than any I've seen. There's a scene at the end that is probably meant to shock, but it doesn't change anything. The only redeeming quality I have for this movie is the overall concept. Other than that, it doesn't try anything new or creative.

Agree . I remember watching it when it first came out as I like slashers .. well I kept waiting for cool kills or creepy atmosphere and I got neither. Oh and the killer himself was blank - they show that at the end he has a child — then credits roll .. that’s it lol.. there was nothing remarkable or even above average about this flick - makes me wonder what the writer was thinking and if something got trimmed or changed prior to filming?
