Decided to watch this and feel like I deserve a goddamn award for seeing it all the way through.
The technical problems were unforgivable. Poor lighting, sound and camera work were topped off with an unforgivably deficient script. Most of the action involves the elderly main actress - she's horrible, by the way - shrieking and running through the same empty house over and over again. Running. Shrieking. More running. More shrieking. 91 minutes of that!!! Very little else. I can't even remember why the killers were trying to "get" this woman. Either it wasn't clear or I'd grown so incensed that I just didn't give a crap.
There was zero tension in the plot and the acting was simply atrocious.
The ONLY REASON that I watched this film was to see an actor named Michael Belveduto because - for a brief moment between 2010 - 2013 - he seemed to be making some traction. I also watched Michael's web series which was shot in Carbondale, Pennsylvania because I wanted to see how they'd utilize Joe D'Onofrio.
So that is my story. I wanted to see one performance and got roped into the whole rotten movie. I could have turned it off at any time. I knew, deep down, that the film could never redeem itself so it was more like an exercise in tolerance and patience. But I'll never get that 91 minutes of my life back, which makes me angry. And neither will you.
