THOUGHTS/OPINIONS

Honestly this movie was absolutely dreadful. A group of us tried to watch it and it was so confusing and bad that we couldn’t even come up with any appropriate jokes. Apparently the movie went through some heavy rewrites because people were worried that it was too similar to Stay Alive. That seems a little strange considering this movie went right to DVD while the other had a theatrical release.

There’s something very offputting about this movie that I can’t put my finger on. It’s not disturbing, it’s just bad. This has to be one of the few movies that I can’t find something redeeming to say about it. It wasn’t even worth the rental and I like Jensen Ackles.
