Filming Locations
Reception
The movie received rather poor reviews. Allmovie rated it 2 out of 5.[1] TV Guide called it an "imbecilic chiller".[2]
Another reviewer wrote, "Like a lot of Full Moon pictures, this movie is surprisingly good despite its cheese. It has a story, it knows how to tell it, and the plot holes aren't overwhelming. They do cheese right. But it IS cheesy. Three out of five digested toasters."[3]
