Goofs

At the school during the dance while Thomas and Jackie are locked in a biology classroom, Thomas tries to break down the door. A white shade pulled down over the window in the door extends down far past the door knob (from 1:06:38 to 1:06:44), but 1 second later the bottom of the shade is above the door knob (at around 1h 06 mins), then below the door knob again (at around 1h 06 mins).

User Reviews

worst movie in years

I won't get into the details, but this movie has the most ridiculous plot of any movie I've seen in years - even our 10-year old wasn't fooled by this story.

Reasonably good actors, actually - the kids, anyway, the adult actors didn't really deliver... but even with world class actors you couldn't have pulled off this one, so you can't really blame them.

Sheer amateur nonsense! Yikes!

I don't know how this movie received a 5.1 rating - since it has only received about 200 ratings, I can only guess the kids who acted in the movie asked all their friends to rate it.
