6/10
I Liked It

I just finished watching this film, and came here to see what others thought of it. I'm actually surprised not many liked it. For sure there were some major plot holes, but I always lean toward the philosophy of suspension of disbelief when I spot these errors, especially in horror films. So story wise, I do agree with the other commentators that the script could have used a good polish by just about anyone who has read a book.

But I do have to recommend the movie for the acting of the lead actress. I have never seen Anna Lynn McCord in anything, so had no idea if she was any good. Turns out she was good. She plays scary psycho fairly well, but not enough for the role to become iconic like Glenn Close as Alex Forrest in Fatal Attraction. But she is young and will probably be able to deliver some sort of outstanding performance in the future. Anyway I gave it 6/10, but that was mostly because of McCord.
