    This film has all the attension grabbing skills of mating snails.The acting in this film was so poor i felt embarassed watching it.However, if you like soft porn then this might tickle youre fancy, otherwise watch cricket.

  • Fascinatingly bad.

    Rated - 1.5 stars  
    By Bobsview (549 reviews) from Gloucestershire , 13 Sep 2012
    An unerotic erotic thriller. I watched it because I thought it could not possibly be as bad as the reviews but it is! The acting is awful and the musical score embarrassing. The plot is preposterous. is that enough to be going on with? Do not be tempted. Deffo rubbisho.

  • the worst movie ever made

    Rated - 1.0 star

    now i'll admit i've seen this twice, once by myself and once with my girl mates,and we only wanted to watch it then because we're such big coyote ugly fans :)

    but seriously, it's appauling, the plots ridiculous

    *spoiler*

    i honestly didn't think you could dig up a 6 week old corpse and have it tested for dope

    the acting is TERRIBLE, and the sex is ridiculous, the roof? seriously?

    there is literally nothing good you could say about this film. how they ever got the studio to fund it i'll never know but DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS FILM!

    however, if you do decide to ignore every review and go ahead and watch it all to the end, tell me how adam garcia doesn't die of blood loss during sex after the near fatal car crash he had literally JUST been pulled out of?

    I rented this film through Amazon thinking it sounded good, nice thriller with twists, well all I can say is that it was bad, worse than bad, it was dire! avoid at all costs, the acting was awful and the plot was even worse, it was just boring. Do youself a favour and watch another film!

  • Predictable is an understatement in this movie. The whole thing is very forced and contrived. There is no character development and both the script and acting are over the top college fodder. All the clichés are usied in a very unintelligent and uninteresting way - the mysterious death by drugging, the suspicious step father and step sister, the seemingly uncaring mother.

    No one in this film seems to have true feelings. It is like it is written by someone who doesn't have any feelings themselves. The characters are ill-defined and they chop and change from being nice, to nasty, to nice again for no reason other than to confuse the audience so we aren’t supposed to know who the killer is (though it is very easy to work out). For want of a better word it is all very contrived. The conversations between the characters are clichéd and melodramatic. There is the wicked step-father, the uncaring mother, the mandatory best friend who is only appears when the writer needs and extra character for, say, grave robbing. It's like 'Society' but without the gore.

    The acting is atrocious from all involved and there is lots of bad dubbing. The aforementioned 'best friend' is SO bad at acting it's like he's not even in the same movie.

    The screenplay is so poor that it confuses the film. At points myself & my partner laughed at the absurdity of it. It's difficult to explain but we both agreed it came across a college type effort. Bad structure, two dimensional characters, Ill-fitting scenes. It had that whole 'first draft' kind of feel. For example the mother comes across as an evil woman who may have killed her husband; she gets married soon after his death and shows no feeling or thought towards her son. Then in a very contrived scene about three quarters of the way through she has a very fake monologue where she explains her deep love for her son and how she would die for him. This is not some deep and meaningful confession of love, but a lazy attempt to tell us that the mother has feelings. But all it accomplishes is to reveal that she has been portrayed as evil through the film in a very inept attempt at a red herring.

    Don't even get me started on the soundtrack!

    Whatever it is you are looking for in this film (Suspense, romance, erotic thriller), you won’t find it. One to avoid....
