HORRIBLE FILM. Typical straight-to-video garbage that somehow managed to get a few decent actors to take leading roles in it. Dominic Purcell and Melissa Ordway were the only good things about it, but even they sucked here.

Everything was horrible. Terrible dialogue and bad acting (I didn't know which was worse at times), dumb lead characters, hilariously stupid and useless cops, and most of the movie goes like this:

-Bimbo's at home talking.
-Stupid cops doing nothing.
-Bimbo's at home talking.
-Killer kills someone off-screen.
-Stupid cops doing nothing again.
-Bimbo's at home talking.
-Killer kills someone again.

Don't watch it. 95% of the kills are off-screen and there's no exciting chase scenes, no nudity, no suspense and literally no confrontation between the lead and the killer at the end. It's all crappy build-up...crappy build-up to nothing and then it ends!

If the apocalypse comes, beep me.

Just watched some of this pile of *beep* on Lovefilm...I couldn't even begin to list the faults with it, just resign it to the great *beep* heap in the sky and never mention it again.

If you fast forward it would still be slow.

Agreed. This film was painfully dull and uneventful. Besides the crippling dearth of tension and atmosphere, this flick didn't even deliver any decent gore or gratuitous nudity to alleviate the considerable tedium. 2 out of 10 from me.
