What begins with some terrifically amazing camera work - the shot just after the moment of schoolyard bullying is one of the nicest shots I've seen committed to film - devolves into the most brainless slasher movie that has ever insulted my eyes. In her first encounter with the villain, she hits him with a knitting needle, then assumes everything is now OK. So leaves him unsupervised with easy access to his own knife. Rinse, repeat frequently.
The casting is the worst, though - I spent most of the film wondering if these were highschoolers or a street full of 40-year-old babysitters.
