PC World

Rating: 5/10 (20 October 2019)

Take out the Race element, and this would be very much the sort of routine shocker you see on the Horror channel (except more predictable than most). Yet it was no doubt the Race angle that allowed the producer to get the budget to give it a Hollywood gloss, and it's also the Race angle that means it doesn't quite make sense: if the bad guys are racists, why do they want to be black people? I had a nagging feeling - and nagging is the word - that some kind of deep allegorical meaning was intended; and I think the main reason people watch this sort of thing is that they enjoy a little thrill of liberal guilt.
