The IMDB reviews for this one are so odd - so... suspiciously positive.

I watch a lot of movies... A lot. Mostly horror, thriller... The indies and the unknowns, too. Covid has sharted out a lot of bad stuff over the last year and a half while major studios held back a lot of their premiere titles; so I got very familiar with looking for lower-budget gems during that time... You can imagine how much trash I've watched and sat through.

With that in mind, know that I created an account here at IMDB just to post a review of this particular movie so I could at least tailor a realistic representation that'll sit alongside the suspiciously fake looking glowing reviews and laughably high rating for a movie this bad...

The movie is cheap. Like art-house cheap. I laughed out loud at the very first scene in the movie - which looked like it was filmed in a basement with red flashlights... so I can't say I didn't see what was coming.

The premise is ok and Tony Todd is a plus; but besides him none of the characters are relatable or likeable. The acting is mediocre at best (though I do like Tony it's not his best work either).

The movie goes nowhere. It slides in and out of coherence and becomes nearly nonsensical by the time you're 3/4 into it... and by then you're praying for the credits and wishing you'd picked a better movie to watch while at the same time wondering how you got 3/4 the way into a movie this bad.

After it ended I reflected on the fact that some very suspect-looking user reviews on this site definitely contributed to my watching this movie - there are numerous 10/10 reviews...

in reality - Was it bad enough to actually create an IMDb account to pan this movie?

Would appear so.
