Review:

So, a psycho killer wearing a tight-fitting potato sack material hood will be the main villain of this slasher pic. It doesn't give one much hope for something interesting or different from the onslaught of other horror flicks.

• Trailer: C

Review:

You can almost see the wheels turning in the head of the author looking for a new way to shock, scare and thrill in the horror genre that has seen far too much repetitiveness of late. However, I don't really think what's presented here succeeds in breaking free of stereotypes.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
