I only read it once. It will stay with me forever.
It is really powerful. Really terrifying. I hated it while I was reading it, as I had terrible nightmares. I (and everyone) needed to read it, though.

Oh dear, where to begin with this tripe of a film.? It's unforgettable for all the wrong reasons, cliched script, terrible acting and completely unbelievable. The first ten minutes was good but it was all downhill from there.

This is rubbish! Low budget stuff even compared to the first, just one gross or gore scene after the next with little plot in between. Thankfully it only lasts about 75 mins that says it all really!

The story was well thought out, it was easy to follow and good. (0 more)
With Jennifer as the only exception, the acting was terrible. I also felt like they could have expanded her training to improve the story line. (0 more)

The acting is good.
The story is terrible. It just is. (1 more)
Yawn fest that takes too long to get to the climax.
Don’t believe the Netflix stars. It’s got issues

Book Favorite

"For complete submersion in a novelistic world I’d choose Edward P. Jones’ epic masterpiece, “The Known World.” A universe unto itself, there are terrible moments and beautiful revelations about a black slave owner and the many lives around him."

"It’s a good thing you people only have three of his movies, because this whole list would get really predictable. On second thought, it’s a terrible thing that you haven’t done more Cronenberg. Armageddon, but no Rabid? Priorities, people."
