As a quick taste of the sheer terribleness of this movie, consider the plight of the heroine’s cat. Ten minutes in or so, and I was silently praying that the vicious lizards infesting the woman’s cabin would go ahead and kill the poor thing so I wouldn’t have to keep wondering when it was going to happen (which of course it did). Another taste: once the vicious-lizard plotlines have been fairly well exhausted, an ex-boyfriend appears out of nowhere for no obvious reason other than keeping the story going for the requisite 90 minutes. Indeed, the only redeeming quality in the whole ugly mess was that a woman with short hair actually survived to the end of the picture. Wish I’d skipped it

Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
