Clearly this is a a first film for everyone involved, not a bad effort for a n0-budget college film, disappointingly bad for a film in commercial distribution. There is plenty to comment on. I fault the script first: any worthy project would have laid out a sequence of dialog and scenes that made sense and conveyed an idea. I wish they had spent as much time writing the project as I spent in watching it. Many of these scenes appear unscripted. Next I blame the director and producer, for failing to control the cast, camera and stage setting. They should have pulled the plug after the first dailies. (Or was it shot in 1 day??) Last I blame the cast for appearing in this weak, pointless film, making a bad film worse with their amatuer theatrics. It's hard to pick out the worst performance, but several leap to mind (Detective Paul?). This film will leave you thinking EVIL thoughts. It's beyond redemption.
