A low-voltage drive-in movie, made strictly by the book.

Proficiently filmed and utterly uninspired.
The film is competently made, and the attractive cast emotes and screams energetically.
Before long, however, the suspense becomes repetitious and predictable. In its denouement, the film breaks faith with its audience, violating credibility in an attempt to deliver a surprise villain.
With each death, the film becomes less interesting. By the end, it's just a routine slasher flick with a too-predictable final "twist."
Maybe there will be an oversaturation of ''Scream''-inspired horror films someday soon, but this one feels fresh.
