Low-budget slasher with a difference - but not as much as difference as it might like to think.

Like Man Bites Dog and the first Funny Games, this asks questions about the viewers' relationship to the violence unfolding before them. However, because of its renting-a-video set up these events lack any tension at all. And unlike Man Bites Dog, the central performance is not strong enough to pull the film together.

What we're left with is little more than film school posing and sixth form-level psychobabble. But at least it tries...
