Directed by Alexander Yellen. Written by Peter Sullivan and starring Jaime Pressly, Kylie Rogers and a brief appearance by Tobin Bell.
Now, first thing I have to make mention too is the fact that the two lead actors in the film are found near the bottom of the call sheet on IMDB and the lead spot going to one Steve Austin who acts as a garbage man for about twelve seconds in the film. Seriously?
A ridiculous excuse for a movie, made for television or otherwise. The acting was incredibly poor by all counts and this includes Tobin Bell who was doing a fair job considering how much camera time he actual had and then came his death scene. Just a purely laughable performance when he fell over and died.
Jaime Pressly who I personally believe cannot act to begin with is overbearingly bad. Half the time her accent is fully present and then all of a sudden it disappears making this even harder to watch.
And don't get me started on the little girl. It was basically watching a typical kid lose their mind over not being able to get a cookie. There was nothing evil about it next to the fact that she murdered my ears. I don't want to be too harsh on her as she is young and just learning how to do these things, but come on, the director couldn't take an extra 5 minutes to try to make those scenes a little bit more realistic? I would have even taken a voice over in post in this case!
The story line seems like it's trying to be far more complicated than it actually is and tried to accomplish this by filling the story with plot holes.
This has been one of those films that I would not ever suggest to anybody. It is a waste of time and not worth even considering. Typically the Netflix ratings are wrong but I have to come close to agreeing with them on this one. 1 out of 10!
