I mean it's like they wanted to make a bad movie I really wanted to like it and honestly probably not much the actors fault but more the directors the story makes no sense at all I mean I can follow it but it doesn't make any logical sense then the ending throws out the rest of logic or reasoning it's just a bad movie. The acting is really bad but again I don't think that has much to do with the actors I mean if you put in Christian bale and Jennifer Lawrence in the main roles it would've been just as bad the lines make no sense at all and they are beyond forced and a lot of the nuance type acting is terrible.

Worst ending of all time
I'm sorry but this film was depressing.
This film had potential and there are a couple of things I liked about it but it was too boring and too depressing to be considered a good film, at best it's Average and even that is being too generous. Pretty much every single character sucks, the only decent character is a guy who happens to like a girl that is part of his friend group. I know that this is a slasher film and slashers typically don't have good characters so I won't criticize it too much for that. The lead girl despite being moody most of the film, was a somewhat interesting character because she had a mysterious past and it made me want to know more about her and her past. Also, her bad attitude was understandable because it is hinted at that she had a bad past which would explain why she looked so unhappy.
The plot is very generic and kind of dumb. For example, a doctor leaves his cake with a fork on the bed next to a crazy person in an asylum and turns his back on the person so predictably what happens? He gets killed with the fork and this person steals his clothes and dresses up as a doctor and leaves the Asylum so easily. You would think people would notice that a doctor is dead but nobody does, They also don't realize that an obvious patient is dressed up as a doctor and somehow he escapes and he goes to the same house the group of 20-somethings are at and he kills them off one by one. It's a very generic and cliche plot, and the only thing that was kind of interesting was the flashbacks. Do the flashbacks belong to the lead girl? Or are they not even flashbacks? And if they are flashbacks then whose flashbacks are they?
This is an idea that was slightly interesting but could have been done a lot better. Throughout the film, we are led to believe that the lead girl is having flashbacks about her difficult childhood and I thought it was interesting how the film switched from what was happening in the present to what happened in the past. The acting of the people in the flashbacks was not the problem. I thought the actors who played the abusive parents did a good job acting. I hated those characters from the start and they were very believable. The two girls who are the abused children do a pretty good acting job too in my opinion.
The movie has no suspense and no thrills and it was predictable and it was run of the mill to the extreme. We already know who the killer is so as a result the viewers are not scared, because we all KNOW who the person is. It would have been more suspenseful if we DIDN'T know who the killer was because then it would have been a fun whodunit slasher, and I like whodunits. But instead, the suspense is ZERO and the thrills are ZERO.
I also do not like the fact that two teenagers are abused by their mum and stepdad in the flashbacks and psychically punched and slapped around by them. The mother was a scumbag who let a man slap her own children around until one day on the older sister's birthday she kills her parents with a hammer. She killed her abusive stepdad and a mother who let them get abused then for some reason her sister calls her a monster?? When she was only trying to protect the two of them.
She killed two abusive parents who beat them day after day and for some reason, the girl who is the victim is called the monster!????
I'm sorry I don't understand that at all. She killed a couple of scumbags, it's not like she killed good parents she killed a couple of abusive evil monsters, and strangely she gets called the monster. She was not a monster, her Stepdad was the monster and I'm surprised that her sister was not glad to be free from two abusive scumbags who didn't even care about them. Her mother even called her a monster earlier in the film which makes no sense either. Why is she a monster? Because she was in an asylum earlier in the film??? That makes her crazy or troubled NOT a monster.
Apparently, these characters are too stupid to know what the word monster means. A monster is an evil person, not someone who was driven to craziness by an abusive stepdad. That girl was a VICTIM, not a monster, if she were a monster she would NOT have been in an ASYLUM. Another problem I have with this film is it's not even explained WHY she was in the asylum in the first place!
As for the main story involving the killer, this killer was LAME and very unscary and the guy who played the killer did a bad acting job too in my opinion. This killer was a wannabe Jason! He threw weapons around like he was Jason Voorhees or something! And it was ridiculous. As for the kills, I don't judge a movie based on kills but even if I did, I would say the kills were lame.
The lead girl hits the killer with a hammer and knocks him out but for some reason, she doesn't finish the job! Instead, she drops the hammer to the floor and turns her back on the killer. This is one of the stupidest decisions I have ever seen in a horror film. First, finish the job! Second, make sure he's actually dead! And third, if you're not going to finish him off don't drop the hammer to the ground right next to him! So he can pick it up later!
I also don't like the fact that the one likeable person in the movie who is the nice guy who treated the lead girl with respect, survives getting stabbed in the stomach which I was happy about, only for him to die later! Wow! Talk about pointless! Not only was that pointless it was also predictable. When Bernadette finds out the guy who likes her is alive they waste time kissing and talking! And they should have been keeping an eye on the killer in case he gets back up! But the two don't even pay attention. I was literally yelling at the screen BEHIND YOU! TURN AROUND. But predictable they don't so what happens? The killer gets back up and throws a weapon at the boyfriend's back and kills him and he dies because of the girl's stupidity.
Bernadette then goes psycho on the killer and beats the crap out of him with a hammer and then kills him to avenge the death of her temporary boyfriend. If it sounds cliche and ridiculous that's because it is. The killer's death is also off-screen so it makes the revenge feel unsatisfying which is another thing I didn't like. I would like to actually SEE the revenge not just see the girl swinging the hammer down at the killer who I can't see because he's off-screen!
To conclude this film is not worth watching, it is mediocre to the extreme, and the only characters I felt sympathy for were the abused teenagers and the nice guy who did not deserve to die. It's stupid to have a character live just to kill him off 10 minutes later! This was a poor film.
wished i took a nap instead of watching
Horrible. The only good part was the girl slayyed her parents. The dialogue was bad and everything seemed so dragged out. All the characters were switching up too, "pay rent in this house or you're going back to the hospital.. oh jk you were only out for 1 day anyway!!". The green screen in the car was also very bad, which could be due to low budget. I'm not tryna roast them for being low-budget but if the green screen looked that bad they should have worked on it more.
Also the random cuts to 'flashback' scenes were kinda just thrown in there weirdly. At some parts there's a flashback because the current characters are on the same part of the property as the characters in the past but the way the flashbacks don't flow in really well. Also the psychology aspect of it is really lazy, all the therapist discusses with Alex -and at the end, Bernie- are their dreams. And she just has alcohol in her office?? Be fr. Everyone has to start somewhere but ive seen better writing on wattpad ;/
