I hated this movie.
A couple rent a house from a creepy Billy Joel look-a-like who secretly
watches them from cameras he has staged around the house. Obviously things go from bad to worse when
the creepy landlord witnesses the husband cheat on his pregnant wife so he
decides to kidnap the girl he’s cheating on.
As this far-fetched scenario unfolds it just becomes more preposterous
and cruel. The acting is pretty average
but I blame the writing. The characters
these actors play are so badly developed and their decision making is
infuriating to watch. The only memorable
aspect to this film is the landlord portrayed by Neville Archambault; a villain
so over the top you want to laugh. I
know what kind of film Victor Zarcoff is trying to make but in the end I felt
like he sacrificed a lot of believably to get the end he wanted. Stay away from this one, folks. It’s just dumb. Grade: C-
Spoilers: I don’t
mind endings where the villain wins; it’s a result that happens in a lot of
horror films, but this one is just mean and silly. There’s no way this guy is going to get away
taking care of a kid on this own. I
think you’re supposed to laugh and find the ending shocking, but I just thought
it was unnecessary.
