Unlike the previous reviewer, I don't base my opinions on six-packs in movies, I don't think that is any kind of measurement for a great film, but this particular movie just "doesn't movie enough". It almost take you to the end, but not even close. I think even with all of it's simplicity the story is interesting and it could've been a horrific tale of a child-torturer and her mutants but the movie.. it just gives up on plot development after the action starts. It feels like there are whole parts missing and the movie just takes a giant leap to the end 'cos it wants to end. Is the budget to blame or what? Some sweet exposition would had been nice. The acting is close to decent, but ONLY close and the gothic red-head is really annoying with her constant "duck-facing".
I did enjoy some parts, like the gore and the mutants were really good at times, especially that empathetic mutant was a nice add. I have seen a lot worse with a much bigger budget, so I don't think this is the worst movie I have ever seen, by far. Try watching Showgirls 2! I got a strong Dead End-vibe from this, don't know if it was intentional or not.
