For a slasher movie this sure has a low body count. This is mainly due to the fact that the whole movie consists of four main characters that we hang out with on an island. I was willing to cut this movie some slack since it at least had a nice creepy atmosphere and decent acting going for it(this is due to actual adults being the protagonists rather than the standard slasher flick "teenagers-in-peril" formula) but then it goes and ruins everything with a stupid asshole ending. In fact I'm not even sure what this ending means. Is there actually a monster? Was it all a dream? Is there time-traveling involved? Don't worry none of these questions will be answered but we will just call this an abstract concept art horror film and then it will make people feel smart after watching it. There are some unique kills which is always a plus but with it's slow-pace I think this may only be enjoyable by someone who has seen every other film in the slasher genre and is very forgiving. AKA NIGHTMARE ISLAND
"If it's only a nightmare, why is everybody dead?"- sums up why this movie is pretty dumb
