Some enjoyment can at least be taken from the gory scenes of the film, just because the puppet when the dog attacks looks obviously fake which gives it a certain charm and adds some black humour, especially in a scene towards the end of the film during an attack on Julia’s boyfriend. The make-up used on Mary (Julia’s twin played by Allison Biggers) for the scars caused by her disease also leave a lot to be desired and it’s a little difficult to take her seriously when her face is visible.
There’s not much else to say about this film, because as I mentioned, it doesn’t quite reach its potential with its concept and promising opening scene. It’s a quick watch despite being slow to build up and is never quite as intense as it should be, so it’s not exactly a must-watch but is something to try if you want to kill some time.
