Horrible Garbage. (Spoilers, but who cares)


The writing is awful. Of course the killer is the boyfriend...and nobody cares. The characters are so painfully unobservant of anything that I felt they all deserved to die for their stupidity.

The music that's played through the starting credits and elsewhere is so bad. It must be a friend or lover of the director and that's why it's in the film.

The editing is so off, in some places the film is incoherent. Near the end the lesbian beats the killer down in the trunk and moments later he rises from behind her?! The part where the detective shows up and numerous other parts throughout the film are just as bad.

This film is also sooooo sloooow. It may be the worst pacing I've ever seen; it's certainly up there. It's about an hour and a half that feels like two and a half.

Anyway, this film is bad. Very bad. I hope the filmmaker is only getting coffee for true filmmakers now. Better yet, I hope she works at Starbucks. Better she just stay away from film altogether.
