Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
SpecialsTarget Disturbing yet enthralling
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
