Quotes
Logan Wallace: Have you ever thought about how, like, weird open houses are?
Naomi Wallace: What?
Logan Wallace: I mean, you give your keys to someone you hardly know, they stand in one room and welcome in a bunch of complete strangers, and those people just roam around the house. And the realtor doesn't check the house when it's done, right? They just... turn the lights off and go?
Naomi Wallace: Okay, well, now I'm not gonna sleep tonight.
Logan Wallace: Maybe you *shouldn't* sleep tonight.

Shut the front door!

When I'm on my death bed and about to slip away, I'm really going to wish that I could get back the 90 minutes of my life that I lost watching this crock of shiz. I feel sorry for the actors because, apart from Martha, (what was the point of her?) they weren't to blame. It was the diabolical "writing" which let this film down. The trailer was really promising but the rest of the film was soooo pointless. Unfortunately, you don't realise this until the end. The end - what the heck was that all about?? I'm just annoyed that I didn't have an early night and save myself from the huge disappointment of watching this film. Save yourself - don't bother!
