If this film was showing in my back yard, i'd close the blinds

Rating: 3/10 (22 June 2008)

A poor idea made worse by a terrible script. The interactions between male and female lead were just toe-curling awful. The representations of female characters was insulting to all women everywhere. The women in this film were either, mother: to be humoured and ignored. The hot next door neighbour: an sex object. Or, finally, just faceless rotting corpses stuffed inside his neighbours basement.
The film begins with a fairly solid opening (there's nothing quite like a uber-violent car crash to draw in the audience, lazy but effective) However it seems the only reason for the car crash was to give the leading character motivation for punching his teacher.
The comparisons with Rear Window are obvious and i am sure the makers of this film made no attempt to claim any originality of this idea, but surely they could of added something interesting to this concept rather than treading a well worn a predicable path to the inevitable conclusion.
