One cracked and broken step above pornography, this "movie" tells the tale of a comatose lover whose spirit leaves her body to wreak havoc at an old beach house, killing random lovers who cheat. This may sound like an interesting idea, but it is so poorly executed, it's not really worth anyone's 87 minutes. That's 5220 seconds, by the way. 5220 long, long seconds. Anyway, let's start with the cast. It is comprised entirely of reality TV stars. This is a failed gimmick, because none of them can act. The only performance that is even entertaining is that of Ethan Zohn, who plays an eccentric, half baked, (okay, totally baked) psychic. I'm not saying his performance is good, it's just so crazy it's funny. And then there's Jenna Lewis. My question is, why cast this lady in one of the main roles when her voice sounds like she has sandpaper in her throat? Her voice cracks whenever she tries to scream, for Pete's sake! The rest of the cast is terrible. Remember, these are contestants on a TV show, not actors. The plot is slow too. The filmmakers fit in as much sappy TV style "drama" as they can, only killing these annoying characters off in the last 20 minutes or so. And I'd say that a good 30 percent of this film is pure sex scenes. So basically, fans of reality TV won't like the gore, and fans of gore won't like the reality stars. So there's really no reason for anyone to watch this trash. Anyhow, it's Christmas, I've got better stuff to do.

Keeping it brief, I found this movie to be a hoot. Lots of fun, lots of reality people doing something different, acting. Some are quite good at it, others are having so much fun, you just get caught up in it.Lots of fun to watch and lots of fun to place the reality person and the show they are from.The story is pretty basic: Woman Scorned, myaterious things happen, people die, parties happen, people fool around, people die... then the revelation takes place and you understand it all. Has it been done before? Sure. Have you heard these lines before? Well only if you watch reality TV. Hearing and laughing at the "core" reality lines and references coming up in something other than a reality show is a lot of fun.I thought this movie was a lot of fun.

For some reason because E! sponsored this movie I thought that it could be decent. Decent...not good. But what was good about this thing? Seriously. THe acting was horrible (Bob Guiney withstanding). THe special effects were horrible. The picture/sound quality was horrible. And the plot????? Come on, there is a ghost killing people for 'cheating' on their lovers. The only thing....the ghost was for a woman that was still alive! Doesn't that tell you all you want to know. The story was not scary at all and it was very boring. You think soap opera acting is bad....wait until you see this.....actually please don't waste your time.

This review has major spoilers, and I don't feel bad about because this movie was just plain bad. The stars of reality TV are out to prove that they can produce and star in a movie, and they wind up proving that they're bad actors. Not that the bad premise helps at all, and several elements of the plot are just ridiculous. A woman catches her neglected boyfriend cheating on her with her best friend, they all have a fight, and the woman winds up in a coma. The producers and director decide to hide the coma, and lead us to believe this woman is dead, for what reason I don't know. If they wanted to obscure the past, why start the movie with the fight? Why not leave out the first 15-20 minutes, and reveal the past as the movie progresses? 17 months later, the spirit of this girlfriend kills any tenant of the house whenever they cheat on their lovers. Why she kills these people first and not her boyfriend and her best friend is a good question. The incredible supernatural strength she displays in her killings should mean that she can easily kill who she wants. The worst scene is when a couple tell each other about their infidelities, and a lava lamp explodes, its contents burning the two until they're nothing but ashes. But what hurts this movie even more is the subpar acting. It's like a bunch of friends making a home video; it's meaningful to the people involved, but the rest of us don't want to see it. Back to your day jobs, reality stars.
