How can an experienced filmmaker Chris Stokes with over 40 directorial credits and almost as many writing and producing credits come up with such nonsense... aren't you supposed to get better the more films you make instead of worse? Aside from the obvious Scream rip-off, adding a predictable and infantile 5-minute twist at the end doesn't justify wasting viewers time with this mess.
Stokes also seems he hasn't learned how to direct his cast properly, because aside from MJW (who was the only draw to see this mess) who can carry his own without cast direction, every other actor seemed like this was their first acting job. And if you want to see this film because of MJW, trust me, you will see zero of his martial arts skills, he was only cast to draw an audience, that like myself, will be very disappointed.
Aside from MJW, all casting and performances were amateur hour. The story was riddled with plot and technical issues, and aside from being cliched, you will get more eyerolls and cringe with the laughable dialogue and nonsense screenplay. Even at a normally comfortable 85 min runtime, this film dragged on and felt never-ending with it's sappy dialogue, terrible acting, and cringeworthy story. Even the pin-hole camera shots were more annoying than effective. There's nothing redeemable about this mess, and I can go on and on how bad this was, but I've already wasted enough time watching this mess so you don't have to, so enough said. It's a generous 2/10 all going to MJW who was miscast and underutilized. My tittle says it all.
