As much a Thriller as it is a Horror

Rating: 7/10 (14 September 2016)

I'm not a horror movie fan but this can also be considered a thriller, filled with tension and elements of horror. The film opens with 3 kids' (Rocky, Alex and Money) mid-robbery, unfortunately their loot isn't generating much cash so their fence suggests sealing just money instead.
They have a wonderfully simple idea, rob from a blind man who has just inherited a large sum of cash. Should be an easy steal – WRONG. The man also has a large, very vicious dog that features several times during the plot. Both the blind man and his dog build tension in equal measure.
They approach the house and drug the dog, it's important to know that everyone else in the street has moved out. However (once in the house) their plan quickly escalates into a home invasion, survival horror nightmare. Initially you'll find yourself feeling sorry for the innocent looking blind man until you realise he's a monster.
The kids become the hunted.
There were many times when I was holding my breath and on the edge of my seat, especially when the youngsters were sneaking past the blind man while trying to escape.
The musical score was very atmospheric (Perfect). The cinematography was dark and moody (Perfect). However, there are other aspects where the film is far from perfect with many holes in the plot, for instance  1/Why didn't the police find any evidence of Rocky's blood when they found the blind man? 2/Why didn't the police question the empty safe? 3/Why didn't the police find the 'female prisoner's' body or the torture room?
The film kept me on the edge of my seat, it doesn't rely on cheap 'jump scare' tactics either. The ending sets up nicely for a sequel, let's call it ...
"I Will Track You Down'.
Recommended for horror or thriller fans.
