Disgusting and lame. The acting is just atrocious and the story is even worse. Gratuitous bloody actions that do nothing but make you either cringe or laugh or both. Not entertaining. Not thought provoking and above all just plain dumb. This film is an example of what films should not be and films that should never have left the drawing board. Pathetic. PS I feel that the people responsible should explain their motives for making this garbage but that would mean taking responsibility which I doubt any of them have the guts to do. In regards to the camera work. The cinematographer was actually trying his best but the direction made it almost impossible to keep consistency. The effect jkust never really worked and left you seriously wondering where the viewpoint was meant to be. I never felt like I was inside the character so why do it?
