Member Rating:  
Quentin Jones, Kathrine Bates, Kyle Gass, Felissa Rose, and Zack Ward headline this dark tale of psychological torment from novelist/screenwriter Harry Shannon and first time feature filmmaker Yossi Sasson. Jack Wade (Jones) is an actor whose overbearing wife Frankie (Katrine Bates) never let him wander too far out of sight. But Frankie has fallen into a deep coma, and the couple's finances have finally run dry. All this couple has left in the world is an isolated cabin nestled deep in the mountains - a cabin where a man once slaughtered his entire family. Now the caged husband who was never left for wanting will be forced to become his wife's sole caregiver, and he'll have to do it in a dilapidated cabin with a dark history. Save for the eccentric redneck father and son who live down the road, there aren't too many neighbors in this remote neck of the woods, a fact that renders lonely soul Jack something of a fish out of water. The only human connection he has is with local Constable Kate Eidson (Gillian Shure), an Iraq War veteran who won't even carry a gun due to the trauma she suffered on the battlefield. Later, Jack begins to think he's losing his mind when he sees Frankie get up and start moving around the cabin - her crude behavior and vicious taunts wearing his already fragile psyche increasingly thin. Eventually, Jack decides that Frankie must die. When Frankie proves unwilling to oblige, Jack begins to wonder whether she's some kind of monster, the cabin is haunted, or he has finally, truly, lost his mind. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Wendy S.

This is a great little film, for horror fans who like their fright with a bit of comic relief. Low budget horror films generally don't have such solid acting, directing, and a top notch score. Stellar performances by Quentin Jones and Katherine Bates lead the way to a chilling exploration of madness and reality. Jack Wade, a handsome but unsuccessful actor, takes his comatose entertainment exec wife to the cabin he won in a poker game. They are broke. There he meets the odd locals and learns of the cabin's sordid past. His troubles are exacerbated by his own fears, anxieties, and isolation. Despite some of the problems from shooting low budget and high def, there are a lot of laughs and genuine chills. The great score by Harry Manfredini (Friday the 13th, etc.) alone is worth the "price of admission," as is the hysterical cameo by Kyle Gass as a local Televangelist.

This movie was a B rate. It had a good story line, but the acting wasn't always the best. It's ok if there is nothing else on.

Not a bad flick, just not really scarry. A bit boring throughout and very predictable.
