Reviews

cmovies-99674 PROS: The movie was intense at times.CONS: The teen scream acting along with a terrible plot and you get this movie. I get that sometime a teen scream feel is helpful, like with the movie TELL ME HOW I DIE, but this movie didn't need it. Time and time again I expected for the characters to be something memorable, they weren't. The worst thing was how cliché the movie was though. There was nothing new, nothing creative. It felt like I was watching every bad movie I saw being put into one. There were so many things that just didn't add up and then you were left confused on why this was even a horror movie to begin with, because there was nothing truly terrifying in it nor was there anything keeping you invested. At any point in the movie I could've walked away and not regretted a thing because by the time the first 15 minutes pass I already knew I was in for a s*** show.www.chorror.com

edwagreen Eerie thriller where a psychologically unbalanced girl becomes the college roommate of a girl whose sister died when the girl was nine years old.Immediately, the roommate, Rebecca, begins to dominate the life of the girl as she really wants to be her dead sister. She causes havoc with the girl's former boyfriend, the latter she later kills and puts a designing professor, Billy Zane, in a very awkward position when he has a different form designing on his mind.Rebecca invites her friend to her home for Thanksgiving and the latter is immediately asked by Rebecca's mother, Frances Fisher, if her daughter is taking her bipolar medication.The ending is filled with violence as Rebecca goes totally berserk and everyone's life, including Sarah's new beau, is on the danger list.

SnoopyStyle College student Sara (Minka Kelly) finds that her new roommate Rebecca (Leighton Meester) has an obsession with her, which quickly turns violent.This is 'Single White Female' the college years. There is nothing original or intense in this film. This is strictly by the number movie-making. Some of the prettiest actresses are here. Add in a few hunks, and we have a semi-exploitative movie. Yet it really doesn't have the edginess to lay claim to that. Although, this does end in good all-in drag-out girlfight. That's was probably the only interesting thing that happened.

bobmarleyy The only reason why i continued watching was because of minka and leighton, otherwise this movie wouldve been the worst thriller of all time. It was a pretty bad ending, especially for the psycho girl, and she was almost depicted as dangerous just for having a mental disorder lol. Overall, worth watching if you have nothing to do, Minka was hot etc. Although, the shower scene was kinda scary... lol id be shitting myself if someone did it to me, but thats pretty much the only scary scene which is bad since its a thriller . Im giving it a 5 just because of the eye candy,im sure 90% of you would agree. peace, and only watch if you run out of movies to watch and want to kill time.
