Welp! So much for the nice cover! Anyways, this movie was basically a formulaic redo of every other slasher/killer-arrives-at-my-house type of movie that includes a choice-making game or w/e.

The first and the last 5 minutes were nice and the rest of the movie was B O R I N G - here's why:

1) Poorly developed characters; nothing makes u want to root for them and u're just like "um, am i supposed to feel sad here"; 2) Clichés every 30 seconds; 3) Poor background and ambiance sounds, most of the time they were sooooo out of place and odd; 4) Too many impossible to explain things, for example, how on earth does the antagonist, which we know nothing about till the end of the movie, so much knowledge on technology? And how dafuq is it possible to manipulate the landline, the GSM coverage, and the main character's house technology and electricity only thru the laptop we get to see in the bad guy's truck??? 5) Literally no suspense, everything was sooooo predictable - no plot twists, no surprises, u literally could see everything coming.

Welp, I could keep going, but u probs get the idea. Anyway, what I did like about the movie a lot was the camera work. It was absolutely incredible, like damn boi! Congratz on that, but how good is a movie that the only nice thing about is the camera work - a hint - it's not.
