Although this movie seems to be a little cheesy with respect to the characters of the store owners, much of the rest of the movie is extremely creepy. Right away there is a sense that all is not well in this mini-mart. The people working in it and even the customers are at risk to walk out the front door and take something horrifying home with them. While the main characters are searching for an answer as to what or who is haunting this establishment, only the crazy woman with the baby carriage seems to understand the real inner workings of this mini-mart. When the craziest character in the movie has all the answers, you know anything can happen. What gives this movie the creeps is the three screen splice that shows three different characters as they leave the mini-mart and something is leaving with them. During the three screen splice we are listening to an anchorman with the up to date gory news of the day. As he reads the gruesome details the characters are becoming tomorrows news! This movie is a favorite of mine because each time you watch it, you still feel your hair stand on end, again and again.
