Ferrara does a lot with very little here. Most of the acting may be a bit campy or wooden, but Zoe Tamerlis is excellent in her mostly wordless role, and the film is fast-paced, eerie and technically very well done. Add a memorable Halloween party shoot-out, and you've got a mini-classic on your hands.
