Decent enough who-dunnit, 31 July 2004
Author: TheatreX from Louisville, KY

Hey now, this is a decent enough who-dunnit slasher/mystery, which takes place in an old theater at the end of a pier in a seaside town in England. Some young actors get an invitation to come perform in a play that's supposed to go on the road and then play in London, but soon it becomes obvious that's not someone's intention at all. Creepy and atmospheric but some scenes are almost too dark to make out what's taking place. It jumps around a bit and the end really leaves you wondering but all in all it's decent and I enjoyed it. This is fairly typical early 70's type stuff but the British always have a way of taking run-down places and making them really creepy and a good job is done of THAT. Not really the carnage/carnality fest the box promises but it's pretty darn good, despite.
