I had read several very positive reviews of this movie so I was excited to watch it...I was very disappointed. The ending was incredibly cheesy and silly, the sound effects were way overdone (there is a part with a baby where they play a crying baby sound as if you couldn't tell it was a baby...come on) and the music was this ever-present "typical horror movie" soundtrack. I was a bit put off at first because the plot summary sounded so much like the (far superior) Kill List, and it really is pretty similar...if you took the great cinematography, the unflinching brutality and the budget away from Kill List and then put the music from an 80s episode of Unsolved Mysteries over the entire thing, you might get something resembling this movie. It's only 69 minutes but it felt way too long and was very predictable and obvious. The lead actor did a really good job and the actor playing Kist was effectively creepy and without them this would be firmly in Syfy Channel B-movie territory. I still wouldn't recommend it; this is one that is not worth the hype. Just go watch Kill List again and save yourself the trouble.
