Customer Review: kept me glued!!
Scary enough movie without being too gory. Luke Wilson, I thought, did a fine acting job as a man who is really scared knowing he and his wife are trapped in this motel run by psychos and who is trying to find a way out to save himself and his wife. In other words, it was nice seeing a man act the way one would in this kind of a situation and not like John Wayne or Sylvester Stallone in their "I got it covered mode". Kate Beckinsale is also good. Frank Whaley is creepy enough!! All in all, if you like suspenseful movies; this should do it for you!!
Customer Review: excellent plot, good acting
The plot is intriguing, not predictable yet not so complex one gets tangled in the twists. A fifties era motel provides nostalgia and the acting is superb. Excess foul language and violence detract but do not spoil the movie. One finds themself caring what happens next. Unfortunately the picture lacks quality music, costumes, makeup and comic relief. Still it is worth seeing.
