How can a movie like this be mass produced and put in red boxes? The movie is soooooo low budget and its apparent. The acting is terrible. They picked just some random teens. The girl is melodramatic and painful to watch as she just sulks around with the same face. The main guy is mildly better, but still horrible. The plot is so ridiculous and boring as well. My friends and I were literally laughing our way through this film. I don't know how it could be taken seriously. The kids talked about planning the murder INSIDE A COFFEE SHOP with people around. There's random flashbacks to the kids talking about how much their life sucks (a.k.a.- they bitch about a ton of first world problems). The only thing I can somewhat compliment about this movie is that they characterize the main guy pretty well. He goes through some psycho downward spiral where he randomly runs around the woods... naked... then gets drunk and pretends to shoot his friend, and finally just goes bazerk as they kill the girl. OH! And the whole scene where the girl gets buried... good lord. The kids talk about putting 2 cameras in the coffin and once they put the girl inside and bury her, THERE IS NO LIGHT. Such a blatant oversight by the director not to put a dim light or night-vision camera in. Instead, the scene stays on (no joke) PITCH BLACK FOR 10 MINUTES and you just hear the girl moan and cry...This move should not have been made. DO NOT WATCH IT. Unless you plan on just fooling around while you're watching it or just chatting with friends.

But this one topped it by far. As per tradition my best friend and I headed over to the Red Box, on a Thursday night, to find something to watch. Neither of us mind watching "bad movies", in fact we quite enjoy watching and making fun of them. But this one, we couldn't even make fun of it. The cover is what drew our attention to this one, and it greatly disappointed. As mentioned by several others, the pacing was awful. So awful, in fact, that I pulled out my crocheting project and worked on it the entire time. As far as the characters go, there was little to no depth to them. Stereotypical manic depressive, stereotypical "my parents don't care", and then the weirdest was the demented, sadistic leader, Travis. Their first mistake: if you don't want anyone to find out about it, don't film it! and closely behind that, don't talk about it in a local coffee house! There's was nothing random about who they choose for their victim.Paraphrasing "We want young or old?" says Travis. "Young, the old are going to die anyway." replies Stephie. "Well, then a guy or a girl?" Travis throws out.None of this is random! Nothing about this was horrific (except for the movie itself) or even scary. Yeah it's possible that out there in the world are three bored college kids, and yes maybe they might think of committing murder and that it could be any random person for no reason. It would really only be scary though if you later found out you had been on their list of "possible victims".To quote my friend, "this movie was really like a limp wiener or a one minute ride."Don't waste your dollar or time watching this movie.

I really liked this movie. I agree with the person that said they wanted to hate it. I thought it was going to be dumb, but it's really not. You just have to be able to understand and really dive into the characters and what's going on. I found none of it to be boring. *SPOILER* Even the part where the t.v. was dark for a long time. It made me nervous and it was very suspenseful. Of course I wish Ryan had gotten to Kayla in time but that would have taken away the sad ending. I love sad endings or ironic endings because everything usually ends so happy and perfect. I want to watch movies that can happen in real life and this is one of them.

Should this film even been included in the "Horror/thriller" genre? It deserves to be placed in your fireplace or burner to help heat your home. All copies should replace toilet paper for awhile. Now I can't make all these criticisms without valid reasons, so here they are. The actors were just genuinely bad. The woman fit the part but failed to act while the antagonist male didn't fit the part but had some acting potential. I didn't find the transitions artistic or innovative in the least. I found them as a detriment to the pace of the film and it was the first time a movie was able to aggravate me. The long portions of darkness captured within the "Box" (Which was no death chamber, but a piece of sh*t plywood contraption that looked like a monkey with no arms could've slapped together with a few nails and used his head to slam them in.) were just awful. They held no importance to the plot and was an actually, pitiful attempt at increasing a non existent suspense. I did find their motives sick and disturbing, but the way they referred to the plan, was so blatant that it became unbelievable. They were scheming in the coffee shop and saying "OH HEY GUYS HOW ABOUT THAT MURDER EH? BOY OH BOY I CAN'T WAIT TO KILL OUR VICTIM" Seriously, if I took a dump on the keyboard, the impact it would make with the keys would probably produce a better screenplay than this. You'd have no remaining brain cells left if you slammed your head against the keyboard enough times to compose of movie with this caliber of bad. You probably couldn't. Every character was an antagonist or I developed no sympathy for them whatsoever, so they failed in the character department of film. Overall, I feel those responsible for the movie should be ashamed of themselves and sit in a corner for ten years. I would've rather stared blankly into a toilet ravaged by bloody diarrhea than to have watched that dirty, dirty movie.
