[BEST & WORST '12] Lonmonster’s List Of The Worst Films Of 2012

Director David Brooks, unfortunately, failed to instill in it anything that resembles real suspense, preferring instead to give us an hour and a half of three boring characters doing stupid things as a silent guy in a mask stands around and watches.”
