This is one of the weirdest movies I've seen in a bit. I seen this under the title 7 In The Torture Chamber which for sure was a marketing scam as the cover for 30 Days To Die looks kind of plain. The movie is about a girl getting adjusted to a rehabilitation center that happens to be called Crystal Lake Treatment Center and there happens to be a killer on the loose.

The flick is weird because right at the beginning the killer is shown ripping a face off then leaving his trademark infinity symbol drawn on the body which makes him known as the Infinity Killer. Then that's the last we see of him for almost an hour as the story concentrates on the girls in rehab. The lead gets killed 50 minutes in! It's almost like one buddy wanted to do a Girl, Interrupted story while the other friend wanted to do a Friday The 13th homage flick. They decided to pool their money together and do one film. However the Friday The 13th friend only had 1/3 of the money so that is how much film he got.

So for only fifteen minutes you get carnage action with the serial killer wearing a Ronald Reagan mask. The production quality was crap. The camera could never keep focused. A few blurred lines were crossed. The sound was all over the place.

I did like the twist ending which is why I gave it some points but other than that this thing is a mess.

Don't get fooled by the marketing

This was one of the worst movies i ever saw. Amateurish and not even worth to be released on BluRay. How should it: It was shot with a video cam that does not even catch focus all the time, the tone comes from the camera itself and if it would be at least promoted as an amateur movie, it would be okay. There are so many mistakes but you get distracted by the bad acting anyway. As I said: as a movie done by hobby filmmakers one can show or watch it on private screenings and it might be "fun", cause you know the makers. As a DVD/BluRay release it is a mess and a lie to the one who falls for the description. Shame on me, but I was one of them!

The best potential, the worst movie.

I decided to watch this movie because the description was tempting and inviting. The movie starts out pretty well actually. Then it all becomes weird.

Picture: Camera movement is disturbing, out of focus at times, and you could easily see the camera in reflections several times.

Sound/music: Horrible! The music, which is a mix of metal and old mute-movie country is way too loud. Even on hi-pass and a well adjusted EQ, I had trouble hearing what they said.

Story: Starts out very good, then it seems like they just wanted to finish it. Fortunately, it was over quick.

Terrible Movie.

The movie starts out very creepy, during the beginning credits, i honestly think this movie was not very thought out. the beginning scene just kind of cuts to the chase, and wasn't very good to set up the tone for the rest of the movie. The camera isn't very focused and most of the time you can't tell what the characters are saying. For the most part i felt like i was watching a cheaply made soft core porno. Let me just say that the music, sucks, and the editing is just horrid. the music is like a mix of cheesy porn riff and rock, and it seems to start up at the most random parts before abruptly ending. In short if you're looking for a good horror flick, move along, this will disappoint in many ways.
