Bored the other night, at my parent's house home for break, I busted out this abomination out of sheer boredom. Hoping for some good, cheesy high school film-fun, I got a horrible, unoriginal piece of garbage. So bad, I turned it off after 25 minutes. I have nothing against mainstream film or high-schooler aimed films, but this really offered no substance or entertainment value other than your average teenage twit (my sister).

Key part where I turned it off: main swimmer guy is talking to his stalker (before she goes crazy, since that's the premise) at a diner. She asks how he got involved on the swim team. He says (something like): well, I used to be really into drugs. I was in trouble with the police, and I went to "juvey" and I was assigned to clean out an old swimming pool. Then I started to swim laps and realized where my passion was..." click.

Hahaha! Horrible fucking movie, even for it's TeeniePsuedoHorrorThriller genre. You have some fine instincts for turning it off after 25 minutes, brother. That is an hour and forty-five minutes of my life I will never get back...

Yes, a bad next generation sequel to The Fan, starring Robert DeNiro and Wesley Snipes.

I saw this in the theatre on the day it came out, and I loved it.

I think it's quality entertainment, and I love Erika Christensen.

I watched this little Aussie film called Blurred last night.

I stopped after 5 minutes. If you think movies like Road Trip and American Pie have shitty dialogue from idiot teens, you ain't seen nothing yet.
