Cry_Wolf

In better hands, this could've been the Scream of the 2000's. No, really. The premise is pretty neat, the performances are alright, & there are bits of really clever stuff throughout. The bones of something great are there, & the end result is engaging & watchable for at least that. Unfortunately, the dull characters & Saw-esque overuse of ridiculous twists makes for a finale that's more self-parody than clever genre spoof. Still, it was something different in a dull decade, & is worth a look.

Extra points for being filmed at Univ. of Richmond.

A second-rate slasher, but it shows the odd bit of directorial premise and a great deal of ambition.

Contrived.

clever, typical teen movie ***
