Please do not waste your time with the stupid movie. To call it a B movie would insult all other B movies. I love scary movies, but this is not scary....just plain bad. The acting is bad. The storyline is worse. JUST PLAIN BAD.

If you need a cure for insomnia, this is it. How this was released beyond a school film department I have no idea, but it has some of the worst acting, sound mixing, music, and editing I've seen in years, and this from someone who loves low-budget. Stuck it out to the bitter end: Poignant scenes came off as trite and repetitive, any creepiness was laughably silly, and the delivery was usually way off. With any luck, this is Lindbergh's last film. The tackiness of the film is perfectly captured in the way the director tried to give his own film 5 stars here!
