This movie kept my interest throughout. not a ton of dialog going on.Just a terrifying story that mostly takes place on a stormy night in some small town, anywhere USA. the main character, Dominic Purcell, I've seen before in Prison Break. He doesn't say much but what makes him good is what he does in between Lines. Plays a pretty good villain: perfect casting.Without giving the plot away there are some good surprising twists in this one. Hey, I liked it,what can I say, unlike some of the boneheads here who thrive on trashing stuff. Oh, I and liked Christine Evangelista and Melissa Ordaway who nailed their Roles as "chasees".

I bought this movie at Walmart because the cover looked super scary.I loved to be scared by a movie.I nearly pooped my pants watching this one. And it takes place at night when it gets dark which makes it even a scarier movie. The girl in this movie Christine Evangelista is very pretty. I think I'm in love with her!! She also looked really scared in it. Dominic Purcell is one of the scariest persons I've ever seen in a movie.so basically, if you are looking to be scared by a movie, then watch this movie because it is non stop action from the start of this movie right to the end of it.Also, Melissa Ordaway is pretty too and she is an excellent actress who genuinely looked scared in it. This movie reminded me of like a Modern day remake of Frankenstein, with Purcell playing Frankenstein on the loose, scaring the pants off everyone!! Anyways, this is just my opinion. Later, Alligators.

"Dominic Purcell from Prison Break" with a nice big picture of him and his shaven head on the cover of the UK DVD. Wait a minute !!! He doesn't even look like this in the movie - no shaved head , no orange coloured jump suit - could this be a cynical piece of mis-advertising by any chance?? I could accept that if the movie was any good - it isn't . This is a feeble rehash. It reminded me a bit of the Black Christmas remake minus the gore with a twist of Halloween minus the scares, tension , logic etc etc. Purcell cruises through on auto pilot on a script written on the back of a matchbox. His escape is so so easy and then at the end when the ten strong police force capture him - he escapes again - oh boy. Cue a harassed detective with the chief on her back, dumb ass but good looking twenty somethings who do senseless things, the thunderstorm , the power outage, the indestructible killer, She runs , he walks - he still manages to catch her!! All this and much much more!!!........minus any scares, gore, tension or reason for watching.

OK, I found the poster promising, so I bought this DVD.Initially it seemed to keep upto my expectation with the creepy opening scene of the psycho leaving his victim as a trophy in the woods. Also, for a few more scenes, the suspense & the tension does not drop. I braced myself for the next strike from the madman. I braced, I braced and I braced. And that's all I was doing! Soon the movie moved tediously. Seems the killer decides to stalk his victims at his own sweet pace(much to our madness!) while our pretty girls jump at every Tom, Dick & Harry noise out there! And there are certain "exposing" conversations between our characters that's supposed to shock or keep us glued to what's happening but instead confuses us as they don't make any sense. If they could have done away with these unnecessary dialogs, the story could have been more engaging to me.I appreciate the performances(at least some) though like Dominic Purcell as the psycho. His glaring looks & cold body language did decent justice to his character. Even Evangelista as Abby did pretty well. Rest of the actors were average.It's just a movie but at the end of the day, I still wish the plot had made more sense.Verdict: Learn from my mistake and escapee far away from this movie!
