    Be careful what you wish for

    I was in two minds to begin with, to whether I should put this dvd onto my rental list. Now, after watching it through, I am very glad I came across this film.

    It is about a boy named Owen who has just moved to Westlake Prep. after his bad behaviour in his previous school. Soon before arriving, Owen finds himself among a group of people who attend the unofficial 'liars club'. When they decide to spread an online rumour that a serial killer called 'the wolf' commited the recent murder of a girl, Owen is first to create the spoof e-mail. However, strange happenings occur which leads Owen into thinking his story may actually come true and his life is in danger..

    A thrilling, heart-pumping film from start to finish, superb movie! Recommended, ignore the bad reviews.

    Rated - 3 stars [Highly rated reviewer]

    Didn't realise i'd seen this before either...

    Didn't bother watching it this time as it wasn't so long ago we saw it the first time.

    We did enjoy it at the time, a cross between buffy the vampire slayer and Friday 13th esque. I would recommend it to all who enjoy a good horror film that doesn't require any thinking!!

    Another good idea for a film, although it has been done before, could have been better with a different cast.

    A tip if you do watch this don't watch any of the trailers as one of them is actually for the feature film which is very annoying as it gives the film away.
