Review

subpar remake (essentially) of single white female, this time set on a college campus. the villain is really underdeveloped and, other than looking hot, the protagonist doesn’t have much going for her either. it’s just a flat film with very little effort expended on character development, suspense, or even a wild finale. i’ll give away the showdown’s exciting ending: the villian finally fights with the protagonist who stabs her in the back with a utility knife. that’s the end. no second wind, nothing. a utility knife? really? that’s like the least lethal construction-related tool there is.
