Kate Beckinsale and Luke Wilson star in this movie with a scary trailer but a very average delivery. After the usual cliched "I'm tired, let's stop at this motel in the middle of nowhere" they put on a video in one of the VCR's in the room. Unfortunately for them they suddenly realise that the very room they are staying in is the one that other guests have been slashed to death in. Literally nothing here that pushes the envelope of the genre. The director Nimrod Antal won a small award at the Cannes Film Festival in 2004 but shows little more than average ability and seems an odd choice of genre for him. This is a JM THUMBS DOWN.
