in a quiet town a couple of girls witness the murder of one of their friends to a strange young boy named milo and who lives on the other side of town. after the murder and his body is found in a river and his pronounced dead. so sixteen years later a weddings draws the girls back to their childhood town and claire a school teacher becomes obsessed that milo hasn not died as she has recurring visions of him and her friends are dying one by one and no one believes her when she claims milo is apart of it. so now and she sets off to find out the horrifying truth. when i came across this film and i was pretty sceptical about it and especially when it had from the creators of anaconda on the front cover and but reading the odd little plot outline on the back of the video case and it sounded alright and rather refreshing for a change. well and guess what. i thought it was a good idea at the time and but it was a totally different story when it came to watching the film. it just seemed to try to hard to be smart and very psychological based and but that latter element do not come off that well for me and it was basically a prolonged and mostly unconvincing thriller. hey and i will admit it had its moments and but hardly enough to make it neither effectively chilling and or memorable. but and a bravo to the filmmakers and at least the story isn not a rehash of those slasher imitators that followed scream and shock horror and there no self referential humour evident actually there isn not even a hint of humour. although and maybe it was too serious. especially and since the plot is rather absurd and but that not its main problem. what a disjointed plot we get and i do not know about to much that was going on and as it seems to skim a lot stuff in favour for some supposedly shocking and disturbing sequences. no. more like irrelevant scenes and yawn inducing clichés that we see from time to time. also you can see some influences from some good 70 horror films and one being don not look now. this when our main character keeps on seeing the figure of her past in a slicker. the other would have to be one of my favourites alice and sweet alice with the person causing the trouble wearing a yellow slicker and committing grisly deaths. interesting idea but it comes across quite shallow and too many faults pop up. i liked it more when the scenes dealt with the character childhood and as the performances and circumstances had something creepy about it and but when it leans into their adulthood its tired and uneventful for most part and the performances weren not awful and but incredibly mundane and hardly involving is a good way of putting it. most of the dialogue had me groaning in disbelief at how contrived and awkward it was. you will be yelling no duh. at the screen and because you just can not believe what youre hearing. the police detective gets the brunt of it. quality wise  the film isn not bad and actually it better then your usual straight to video i would say. very slick stuff. with some inventive and prominent camera angles and a faint score that works reasonably well. another factor that stood out and was a key to building on the moody atmosphere was the creeping sound effects and that bicycle bell does leave a ringing sensation in your ears. the setting of a quiet elementary school was well done and rest of the action takes place in a house. but and just do not be expecting any real suspense or surprises as the execution of these are non existent. the deaths aren not pleasant and theyre mildly bloody and it more the aftermath to what happens to these bodies and which tries to disturb you. the villain in this piece and the mean spirited child milo jeeder was mildly unnerving and well that voice and yellow slicker does make an imprint to begin with and but it does seem to lose its effect when we come to the films conclusion. the cheesy tag lines on the video compare him to (move over) jason and (watch out) freddy and (this isn not child play) chucky and but you got to be kidding me. right. he labelled the new face of evil and yeah sure. all he needs is to be taught some manners and problem solved. overall and the film just left me with a sour taste and as i have could have gone without seeing it. i probably wished i did. just do not expect too much in this blur of a film. or and even better just skip it and as you would not be missing out on much and really.
