Utterly implausible


Putting aside the fact that this movie is literally just 70 minutes of Ashley Benson living in an apartment, the ending is utterly ridiculous. We are supposed to believe that a random stranger, in what I presume was the night, was able to enter an apartment building - where you almost always have to be buzzed in - and then casually went up to her apartment on the 4th floor (apartment 4A), broke in, attacked her, and NO ONE heard a thing or considered anything suspicious? She screamed quite a bit before he taped her up.

I just find that unbelievable. I live in an apartment building myself and christ, you can hear just about everything your neighbors are doing. Even if I'm to believe that he followed someone into the building, someone would have seen/heard something during the break-in and attack. And mid-credits, the police show up and both the killer and Benson are gone?! How did he transport a duct taped and possibly dead/unconscious girl out of the apartment?! I don't think its too much to ask for just a hint of realism, even in a movie.

Anyway, this movie had a decent (if overused) concept, and fumbled it badly. Avoid.
