Rosewood Lane (2011)
2/10
Disjointed Dreadful Disaster
22 June 2013
Nothing much comes together in this sloppy and somewhat confusing entry in the "suburbs are not all that safe" Genre. If we didn't know by now, it is a place with hidden horrors and beneath the clean exteriors lie dirty, and scary secrets.

What secrets reside here, are hardly explored, explained, or for that matter, halfway through this thing you won't care. It is a mishandled, muddled attempt that cannot be forgiven its lame premise and truly awful Script and Direction.

The Movie is disjointed and rarely remotely scary with a dull sense of disbelief. Characters behave in such a way that even Horror Movie conventions are stretched to a point of Audience forgiveness. Everything is telegraphed, draining what little suspense is concocted and it results in a clunky, clever-less Film that can be a chore to get through.

Making it to the end of this dud might be considered an achievement, but that accomplishment will soon dissipate because the End does not justify the Means. It is as flat and uninspired as the rest.
