One of the things that makes low budget scary films fail is glacial pacing, and this film is a prime example.
Although the basic premise for this film is interesting, and there are a number of strong elements in it, the film founders in a sea of unnecessary side trips and very loose editing. Cutting 45 minutes out of it would have done wonders, but as it is the poor audience has to endure endless trivial scenes that should have been cut way down or eliminated. It wallows in irrelevant dialog and loses the dramatic focus it needs to be effective.
The cheesy effects don't help much either.
