NOT a 'noir', NO, NO, NO

Good grief, will the abuse of the term "film noir" never cease on IMDb!!?? This is a thriller, a suspense film. THIS IS NOT A "NOIR". People, look up the term.

I am quite thrilled that you are obsessively following my posts. Therapy? No. Interest? Yes. No need to be puzzled by my "rant." I'll say it again...it is one of the most abused terms on IMDb, and within the "film history" community.

When one disagrees with another's opinion, isn't it quite sad to go the route that you continually take?? Therapy squawks?

Keep the posts up...I'll reiterate my already clear observations, if necessary.

Several on the review page called it a noir. I'm with Ripshin, this ain't one.

do you always bully and pick on others when they make a post? What business is it of your's what the OP wrote....if you disagree than kindly say so...don't go telling someone that they need "therapy"...that was rather nasty of you!

It's not a noir, but it's not a thriller, either. Netflix had it under the scary movie setting, but it wasn't.

The shadow at the beginning and end didn't make any sense. Overall, the whole thing didn't make any sense.

If you're too old to cut the mustard, you can always lick the jar.
