A movie like this in 2020 seems unreal. I didn't even realize this came out in 2020 until I came on to review this. It seems like a movie that would've been made in the early 2000s with how bad it is. The special effects and cinematography are laughable - especially during the car crash scene in the beginning when all they did was rotate the camera around a few times when I could clearly see the car wasn't moving. The acting makes this film a must watch if you're looking for comedy. The movie is predictable from the start, slow, and the characters are absolutely idiotic. Just because the guy punched some "homeless man," the protagonist decided to let some stranger into her house rather than just direct him to a hospital or something. The black lady was unnecessarily killed, and given the movie has such a small cast I would assume it was because the directors remembered at the last minute that they had a character who was still alive. The drunk guy didn't have to get out of his car and check inside the window, he could've just went off his suspicion and called the cops from inside his car. How the best friend trapped in the closet didn't bang on the door/walls or make noise when she was tied up until things was escalating was a wonder. Even the stalker was an idiot and who made terrible decisions. For example, what was the point of heading to the friend's house? He wanted the girl to himself and could've just ran off and kidnapped her, but for some reason he wasn't to go to the best friend's house and stand around like a fool? Things just don't make sense throughout the film and the characters are incompetent - but I guess having a smart band of characters would've made things too inconvenient. It feels like the director was just fumbling around making the plot up as the movie went on. I've watched a lot of lifetime movies - this one was undoubtedly the worst. Only gave it a 2 star because thought it was interesting that the movie took place in mainly one location.
