The Victim (2011)
2/10
This was a joke, right?

Oh my Lordy.....As soon as the characters start talking I knew this was going to be a rough one. I've never seen what is horrible dialogue to begin with delivered in such a flat and wooden manner. Clunky lifeless delivery. The lead girl is like the Tori Spelling of horror, which isn't flattering. Geez man who wants to see a bunch of middle aged losers slobber and grope each other? No chemistry between anyone. Horrendous editing with a very inappropriate and distracting soundtrack. Music of this genre is supposed to create a dark atmosphere and tension. No idea what he was thinking with these choices. It's like he found an iPod on the street and just put it on shuffle. People just don't act this way if strains credibility at every turn and gets worse as things progress. Doesn't work as drama, horror, and is too awful to be in the so bad it's good category. Michael Biehn has made the stinkiest pile of caca ever. A whole new genre of which only this movie belongs. It's true he can act and act well. Too bad he didn't give himself decent material to work with. He knows good talent, so it's confounding to me why he surrounded himself with a cast with zero talent. It's short, so that's merciful at least. The sparse nudity wasn't erotic or titillating in the least. I wish a plane crashed in the first 15 minutes of this film and incinerated everyone. Gotta love those really really remote cabins that has electricity, internet, and a road right to the front door. Stinks in every possible way. You will be hard pressed to find worse acting.
