Trivia

Because the location used for the Gordon House was donated to production and filled with lots of expensive things the only practical blood seen in the film appears on Chris after being bitten by Jeremy. All other blood is realized through the use of CPU intensive fluid and particle simulations, ray tracing and global illumination techniques. The "black pudding" seen coming out of Mrs. Gordon's mouth was always with either a furni-pad or other protective material underneath Debbie Rochon to protect the white Berber carpet used throughout the house.

User Reviews

Decent low-budget movie ends up going downhill

So I thought id give this movie a chance seeing as I'm a BIG horror fan.

Starts off well, kind of similar pace to Babysitter Wanted / HOTD with the teenage girl at the big babysitters house. A few good moments and builds a little tension throughout (well until the final act where it all falls apart) an obvious storyline which contained no real padding other than clues that lead us nowhere.

The acting on all parts is done pretty well but falls short here and there and the Chris character is totally unlikeable. Why do you want to marry him Lucy? Lol anyway its short enough to be enjoyable despite the stupidity of the characters near the end and one moment of awful CGI.

There's also is no end twist? Pretty basic from start to end. Not sure why other people are saying so...
