So ok, this film was shot on the cheap, which shows in pretty much
every aspect, its costumes, its sets, its direct-to-video looks ... but
that doesn't mean the film can't still be good, because what the film
might lack in budget it makes up with an original plot, a plot that takes
the seemingly much-travelled slasher formula (with breasts, wet T-shirts
and violence in all the right places) and twists and turns the film's
outcome around towards the end so incredibly often it makes your head spin
- but spin in a good way. Sure, this is not the slick and polished
conveyor belt slasher big budget Hollywood presents you with time and
again, instead a low budget effort that proves with a bit of imagination
you can still make something out of an age-old plotline. By the
