strange Canadian slasher flick, 26 July 2008
5/10
Author: TheatreX from Louisville, KY

I just got this on DVD (Substance) and the quality is not bad, and this is the only "official" release that I'm aware of.

A woman, who is unhappy with her waitress job (and apparently life in general), is coaxed by a hooker friend to go with her on a "call" and make some easy money. The customer is an older man who "doesn't like to talk about his past", and while at his big old house, the power goes out, and one of the young women, Janet, see her friend April and the man with their throats slashed, and runs for her life, only to be caught by the mysterious assailant, and to wake up in a hospital with her wrists bandaged, an apparent suicide attempt.

So what really happened? Janet is shunned by her co-workers and loses her job because they don't want the bad publicity (and how did she get out of the hospital?). Her boyfriend Dino is rather irritated with her (but he's irritated with everything, it seems) and yet he hooks back up with her to help solve the mystery. There's a lot of mob-type stuff going on but it's not too clear what it is, and there's also some kind of cover-up with the judge, but for what purpose, who knows.

This isn't all that bad to watch, and a mystery coupled with a slasher flick isn't ALL bad, but somewhere along the line I suppose I missed the point and nothing that happened really wrapped things up for me. A rather strange film, but mostly watchable, just a bit murky overall. 5 out of 10.
