LeonLouisRicci Lifeless Thriller that although Marketed as a Horror Movie it falls way short because aside from some Graveyard Stuff about Premature Burials, Paranormal Ghost Happenings, and wait a minute this is trying to be a Horror Movie, so why is it so Not-Horrible?Because everything is pulled back quite a bit here to almost PG-Land with most of the Elements lacking any real Deliverance. There are No Shocks to speak of and it is hardly Violent and its Creep Factor is Mysteriously Low.Dennis Quaid does give it the Old School Try Vacillating from Hard Stares to Threatening Dialog. But what's Missing here is a Consistency of Competence. It comes across as Pedestrian and almost Amateur Hour most of the Time. The Side-Stories are Never Remotely Entered into the Shallow Plot and this Thing ends up as not Awful but Scattered and not Engaging in any way.
KineticSeoul If you seen the trailer to this movie you can basically sum everything up. At least most movie buffs can. Watching this movie was like watching a mature children's TV show. About couple of kids or teens trying to investigate something in a neighbors house and gets more than they bargained for. This can be done well but it just comes off very narrow in this one. Just about everything about this movie is predictable and some characters actions and decisions doesn't make much sense at all. The twists are disappointing and nothing special at all. Dennis Quaid is always good as playing these grumpy old characters and he does a good job of playing this psychotic grumpy mortician. Overall it's a watchable movie but it doesn't bring anything new to these types of movie nor does it throw any good curve balls. Whats gonna happen is if your a movie buff or maybe even if your not your still going to predict whats gonna happen all the way through and be right about it.4.5/10
midgetalan I've always been a big fan of Dennis Quaid's but my God, what was going on in his head when he agreed to do this B-movie horror/chiller?! If you thought Ray Liotta was bad in "Turbulence" with his over the top, maniacal character...Quaid beats him hands down in this one. I admit he keeps an amusing swagger to his insane character throughout that just about saves him, but the whole concept is not only ridiculous, it's been done a thousand times before. Scorned husband punishes all who stand in his way blah blah blah.....The adjoining cast of relative unknowns aren't much better and very unconvincing in their respective roles. I wouldn't even classify this movie as a bit of fun, it just plain stinks!!!!! I gave it 3/10 because Quaid did make me laugh once or twice with his one-liners but the ending sums up the stupidity of the entire film.
movieman_kev Despondent and depressed over the untimely death of his sister, teenage Travis believes that the local shady mortician (played with much ham by Dennis Quaid) is responsible for her murder. So he and his three friends decide to gather some evidence from the morgue with disastrous consequences for one of them. Now Travis and his two remaining friends must bring the murderer to justice while also contending with cops that don't believe themAlmost every Tuesday Instant Netflix has at least one film streaming on same day as released on DVD, this week it's three films (this one, The Myth of the American Teenager, and Wolf Town) And while this is a marked improvement on the supremely atrocious Wolf Town, Not by much. The movie is nothing we haven't seen a million times before, the acting is all right in an over the top way. But the ending is utter dog excrement, the film just kinda sputters to a conclusion.My grade: D
