Francis Hamilton:
What does it mean to be happy? To be content in the world around you? Mom used to say it was family. That family was the heart of everything, even existence. Without it, there's nothing. She would always have these simple answers that somehow would sound so brilliant...

The description of this film did not excite me overly, as I really despise the "people being horrible to other people" subgenre of horror. Boring.
But, there was a projector glitch in the previous Horrorfest film I'd been attending, and they gave us free passes, I was already at the theater, I figured "Why not?" I very nearly walked out in the middle of the opening sequence, because it looked to be very much a "people being horrible to other people" cliché, but I decided to stick it out and I'm glad I did. Best film of the festival.
I thought the story was engaging, and while the violence and gore on camera was minimal, it was effective. After twenty minutes, I WANTED to see how and why this family was so screwed up. While I started to have my suspicions about the twist at the end, it wasn't until just very shortly before it was revealed.
