After about 45 minutes in.... I just wanted to watch another movie

Rating: 1/10 (12 March 2006)

The movie started out pretty exciting actually. I seemed like it was going to keep your attention all the way. After the family was attacked by people living in the desert hills, the movie just blew up with horror clichés and unnecessarily gruesome scene after scene. Most horror movies have a somewhat comical way of murdering people, leaving you with a feeling like "alright, they finally got him!". This film failed in that category, where the killings left you with the feeling like "omg, this is just sick".
I admit the cinematography was cutting edge and very well done. The acting was OK, but you can't expect stellar performances from several no-name actors. My interest phased in and out through the movie and eventual took a dive off the deep end. Bad movie.
