good idea, but AWFUL acting!

Rating: 4/10 (26 December 2004)

The acting was so terrible that almost the entire theater kept laughing at what were supposed to be dramatic and heart wrenching scenes. This movie should be labeled comedy-horror, tongue in cheek. The cringe-worthy script was as bad as the acting. Nevertheless, a remake MIGHT be good, it's hard to see how they could do any worse than this one! There is a twist at the end, but it's not interesting enough to save the movie from the Razzies. One interesting aspect of the plot is the drama of people being forced to choose between themselves, their family, or strangers. But the acting was so off key and distracting that the potential philosophical subtleties are drowned out.
