I was entertained. I do not know much about the actors. I was looking forward to it since it gave a mystery movie vibe and yeah I love old fashioned mysteries.

There are not many horror elements. And whatever horror elements are there, the impact is less but it works as a old fashioned mystery novel type movie. The setting is impressive.

The main girl looks like Megan fox, sort of a turnoff because she looked like somebody who didn't really fit in with the movie. Probably someone less model-like would have fit the role. A girl who has the next door look, for example. And I don't think her acting is anything to rave about anyway. The main guy is OK. But my favourite actor was actually Fred Durst! Who knew LOL! He does the job pretty well. I actually didn't recognize him but I thought "I have seen this guy somewhere", I couldn't place him.

One thing I did like about this film is how it ignored one cliché, that of the friend character.Like in certain films, the Fred durst character turns out to be a two face sort of a character where he turns out to be negative because of his experiences. But in this movie he still appears a guy who has not lost his innocence and who still cares about his friend despite everything the main guy did. The main guy was a jerk IMO.

But yeah overall the movie has borrowed from many sources and sticks to the predictable script. But I still thought it was a good effort and it delivers when it comes to the suspense part.
