CRUSH THE SKULL feels like nothing more than an indie rip-off of THE COLLECTOR. It tells of a gang of thieves who decide to burgle a house they haven't encountered before, only to run afoul of the serial killer who just happens to live inside. While this is a well-shot movie for the genre, it also happens to have no menace and no sense of foreboding either. The antagonist isn't present so the viewer is just left with endless scenes of the main characters wandering around an empty home. If this is your idea of fun then so be it, but it certainly isn't mine.
