Trivia

The jack-o-lantern shown in the pizza parlor is CGI. Director Damien Leone said he wanted the scene to have more of a Halloween feel to it, so he added it in post production. See more »

Goofs

In the shots where Tara is gagged with tape, the tape is clearly not making any contact with her lower mouth in some earlier shots whereas it is tight around both of her lips in other shots. See more »

User Reviews

 
IMDB ratings are a joke...
30 December 2018 | by MVProtusSee all my reviews

Why can't people be realistic when voting for a movie? 1 star? really? - I cant think of any budget movie that outranks this one. Not only that, this movie is better than 80% of others horror movies which didn't have an unlimited budget.

That being said, the movie is great. A few things could have been a little better, but overall really well done. Congratulations to Damien Leone and David Thornton
