Movie Summary:

            Sarah has moved back into her home, which was being rented with her father and uncle Peter. They plan on renovating it and selling it. Immediately Sarah hears strange noises in the house and gets her father to check it out. He disappears and she goes running through the house to find him. She finally finds him bleeding on the floor. She takes his keys and takes off outside. She bumps into uncle Peter and he drives her back to the house to find her dad. He goes in the house and she waits for him. Suddenly a man opens the trunk and she takes off inside.

            She runs into Peter and they hide in a wreck room. She sees a little girl and man come in. Peter is taken and she runs after him looking for him.

            Later on she discovers that the two people don’t exist and that she hurt her dad and shot Peter, she finds pictures of herself as a little girl. I can assume from the pictures that her father and uncle were physically and possibly sexually abusing her. She unties her father who begins to whip her with his belt. Peter tells his brother to stop. Sarah gets a sledgehammer and hits her dad until he dies. She is then about to hit her uncle, but doesn’t. She walks out of the house. THE END!!!!!

My Review:

            I really did not get this movie. I think this is mostly because I fat forwarded most of the movie. Sarah kept walking around the house crying for almost half the movie, and it was really annoying. Also, I really did not get the actual plot. Did it even have one???? Like she discovers she’s crazy and kills her father. The end, like wtf? Also this movie was said to have ‘frightening scenes’….it did not! At one-point blood forms on the bed out of nowhere, and then a toilet on the whole pours blood and a little girl in the bathtub is soaking in blood. It wasn’t scary and it really didn’t make sense.

            This movie was basically a bunch of nonsense, the scenes didn’t go together. This movie seemed like it was really low budget and thrown together. Did I mention that half the movie was of the actresses face crying and being scared. I have never watched such a bad movie before. I’ve never fast-forwarded a movie before, beside Shutter Island with Leonardo DiCaprio. So two movies I fast-forwarded. Not bad. Anyways this movie sucked and was boring.

            I defiantly recommend every single person to not waste their time on this movie and to not waste money buying it. Watch it online if you must, but seriously don’t watch this garbage.
