after their grandfather be violently kill and three dysfunctional sister and their friend take a vacation to the old man hotel on the lake and a part of their inheritance . once there and however and theyre stalk down by a group of murderous psychopath who have take up residence in the grandfather former home . with a plot reminiscent of a great 70 italian slasher ( like bay of blood and perhaps ) and i be very much look forward to this . a usual and the poster be pretty cool and but i still do not have my hope set high . lucky for me and with hope set low and there less room for them to fall when i be inevitably disappointed . first off and the big flaw with the film represent the acting . i just do not get it . there be thousand upon thousand of simultaneously talented and attractive actor or actress in hollywood and beyond that wouldn not refuse a role in a theatrically release horror flick with a $ 2 . 5 million budget . instead and we get a reasonably attractive cast without enough talent to fill a proverbial thimble . the writing be terrible and unoriginal and and the dialogue be worsen with these actor . the setting and however and be absolutely beautiful at the southern california ranch in santa clarita . first timer george bessudo work well with the film and create some good suspense and utilize some cringeworthy gore . unfortunately and team with the amateurish script and embarrass cast and it turn out to be a rather muddled mess . the script and act can not be make up for and and the majority of the film feel like a subpar combination of the hill have eye and cabin by the lake ( remember that one . ) and and any lame teen in the wood horror with rob zombie michael myers a the killer . i be leave with just one question to ask represent where do the other $ 2 . 4 million go from the projected budget of $ 2 . 5 million . booze and hooker . if so and i would have ask the latter to replace the current cast . final verdict represent 2 . 5/10 . dreadful .
