It's the "Truman Show" but not a good show.

Rating: 1/10 (21 April 2012)

Starts off with the usual horror cliché of five young people, who will be killed off first, characters going to the cabin by the lake. The presents of Richard Jenkins in a control center lets you know something isn't right.
Seems these only child orphan lambs going to the slaughter get to choose their path to demise. In a hokey series of scenes in the basement they unleash the dreaded Buckner family of Zombies. (The leader, Bill Buckner is best remembered for booting a ground ball and killing the Red Sox fans hopes and dreams.)
If you know she is in it, you're waiting for Sigourney Weaver. By the time she gets there to explain it all you don't care.
There's the usual change of rules that occur too late in the story. This time it's OK for the virgin to survive if she suffers enough. The audience suffers even more then the good looking cast that is given very little to say or do but run for their lives.
It's contrived. You often feel the hand of the writer and you see it at the end when it's supposed to be the hand of some angry evil God.
The villains are dispatched by the monsters not the young survivors. It doesn't work as a horror movie. It falls short as a comedy. It is not a thriller. It has some moments but it's not worth your time or money.
