This is the summary on IMDb - Take a terrifying plunge into the warped mind of a disturbed young woman. Desperate to get her life back on track, the unstable Streak takes a job as a security guard, working the graveyard shift at a once upscale, now abandoned apartment complex. But on her first night on duty, she discovers a horrifying presence lurking deep within the bowels of the decaying building. With her nerves already on edge, Streak must confront demons both real and imagined as she struggles to keep a grip on her sanity.
This is a basic summary and after watching this movie it is so much more. A young woman, Streak, discovers the truth about what is behind a locked door in an abandoned apartment complex. She struggles to fight through her own delusions and the issues she is struggling with. In reality, she is the person with the answers, all she has to do is realize who she is.
This wasn't a great movie, I will admit that there was a bunch of stuff which could have been explained. The entire reason for part of the building to be locked was not really explained, and neither was the reason behind the bad thing that happened to all of the people who were residing in the area behind the locked door.
The stand out performance in this movie was by Jason Patrick, who I haven't seen in much since he was in THE LOST BOYS (I know there was more stuff but I haven't watched him in a lot of stuff). He portrays a security guard with physical disabilities very well. There was some humor with Patrick's character, which was a welcome break in a movie that took itself a little too seriously.
I wouldn't say I disliked this movie, it was an okay, it had few new scares. I enjoyed the plot of the movie, and didn't see the twist coming to the end, this was the only redeeming factor and the only reason I liked this movie.
In all honesty, it is hard to come up with new ideas for a horror movie. Most movies recycle the thrills and scare tactics. This movie was no different.
Now onto SHARKNADO 3, and tonight I am off to see the movie LIGHTS OUT so I should have a review of that tomorrow. Then back to work.
