Whoa! The user J. Davis must have watched a completely different movie than I did. Perhaps there's another movie called the Wrong House that I can't find. All I know is no one who watches this movie could possibly write the same things he did. Here are some of his quotes: "It obviously didn't have a high production value & you shouldn't expect to recognize the cast but due to it's original plot..." Stop right there. Original plot. Unsuspecting young people getting killed off one by one by deranged serial killers is an original plot? Hmm. This must be the first horror movie J. Davis has ever seen.
"As far as the plot goes they pretty much tell you everything that goes down in the plot summary so I won't get into it much. It delivers a message that applies to every day life, if you go through yours doing bad things of any kind to people you don't know, eventually you are going to get your ass handed to you." I know my criticism of this quote isn't entirely based on the movie. But anyone who is past the age of 18 will tell you there are plenty of who do bad things who never get their ass handed to them. Sadly, that's the way society is. And people watch movies to escape that fact and see justice done for once.
"If you are a horror fan that doesn't mind a low budget you should give it a chance. Once your into it for around 20-25 minutes you can't help but to see it through." Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! 20-25 minutes in you can't help but see it all the way through?! The only person who could honestly say that is someone bound and gagged with his eyelids forced open like Malcolm McDowell from A Clockwork Orange or maybe one of the victims in this movie.
My assessment: awful. The cinematography looks like it was filmed with a 1980s camcorder. Even Birdemic has better cinematography. The directing was terrible. There were way too many unnecessary closeups. The director is extremely addicted to closeups. At least half the shots in this movie are closeups. Also, there's this lame scene where the villains have bound their victim with a chain and it has all these pathetic effects with shots intertwining, the lighting and colors changing, slow-mo sound effects, lights flickering, and the camera jumping. I know the director wanted to make that scene seem trippy. But it just came across as being annoying.
The acting...hmmm...let's just say I could go to my local bar and grille and find better actors. Plus, I feel as if I could write better dialogue even if I was drunk. The sound was amateurishly done. It was a little too muffled for it's own good.
The kills: depending on how serious you take this movie you'll find the kills either cringeworthy or laughable. There's this one particular kill that was so utterly ridiculous it left me speechless. It's after the usual, "let's split up" moment in horror movies. It's a total WTF?! moment. If you've managed to make it that far, you'll either turn off the movie to go do something constructive (like stare at boiling water) or you'll have a difficult time picking yourself off the floor with laughter.
The villains aren't scary in the least bit. The woman looks like your average suburban soccer mom. The guy with the crew cut looks like the guy at your local tattoo parlor. And the main villain looks like some ex-bass player in some washed up heavy metal band that nobody has ever heard of. When I saw the villains, I facepalmed and said, "These spare change budget horror slashers don't even try to get a scary villain." It seems like this is one of those camcorder horror movies made for fun that you see in those $5 horror movie combo packs. Apparently, this was made for $10,000? Wow. I wonder what the director did with the other $9,000 because it looks like he only used $1,000 to make this movie.
So there you have it, folks. If you're looking for some dumb camcorder horror movie that looks like it was made for 1000 bucks, this is your movie.
