Overly-hyped films are often bad. This is no exception.

Rating: 2/10 (7 August 1999)

If your idea of scary is a girl screaming "Josh" over and over again in the dark, then you will find this movie scary. If not, be ready to be disappointed. As a college project it is certainly a very good attempt and probably deserves a B+. Too bad it has been hyped as something more. If it's scary you are after, better to go to the video store and rent the original "Psycho," "The Thing," "The Birds," or any one of a dozen other classic nail-biters.
