While I can accept the cheap Hollywood horror movie clichés that are rampant in this movie, I can not accept the ending of the movie which, when I had time to think on it, I was not be able to unravel how the perpetrator was able to manage to do what she did. I read what others had said about the end being a surprise. Fine, I was surprised but the more I thought about who the villain was the less and less probable the plot became. She simply could not have manipulated that many factors and gotten away with her crime. The ending, which is supposed to make clear all the plot twists, goes so fast that it didn't allow me to absorb how it was possible for anyone to do what she did. So I concluded that it simply would have been impossible. What a gyp! The only reason I gave this movie a 4 was that it has no pretense of being anything other than a B film and it wasn't totally boring.
... View MoreThe beginning of the film is quite decent with a lot of potential. However the story quickly dissolves into several "suspenseful" misdirections which are mildly entertaining yet predictable.Marc Blucas plays a young, handsome and rich literary agent. The casting of Blucas for this role was a poor decision. Not because he's not a good actor; he's just not a believable yuppie bookworm. I did like that Blucas' character wasn't afraid of the dark and wasn't jumping at every strange sound or seeing things.The end is predictable although the writers didn't think so as the ending is supposed to leave you in shock. All it left me was bored and glad to hit the stop button.

Marc Blucas was an excellent choice for the starring role of this movie and the supporting cast was spot on with their acting. One thing I liked about it, was that it was not overly x-rated and the women seemed classy and not the run of the mill bimbos that star in just about all movies these days, there was nudity, but, it was tasteful and not overdone. The plot was very interesting and though you could probably take a guess at who dun-nit, there where some twists through the movie to try and shake off your preconceptions till the end of the movie. I gave this movie an 8/10 because of the great balance it had and the entertainment value. This is a good movie that is definitely worth watching.
... View MoreMy wife and I liked this movie a lot! We are not film snobs but we like finding and watching movies that most people don't know about. She found this one surfing Amazon UK. We ordered it and watched on our Mac. We agreed that it reminded us of a combination of the movies "Deceived" with Goldy Hawn and "The Player" with Tim Robbins. Like those movies "The Killng Floor" had scary moments with out being a slasher film, although was scarier than these other two. It had twists and turns that you may have suspected could happen yet they played out in a way we did not expect. Over all this movie was really fun to watch. If you know New York at all, the scenery was great. We have recommended it to our friends here in Minneapolis, MN.
