Rating: 2/5 --
Clever enough, but forgets to be exciting.

Little White Lies
Rating: 3/5 --
This is an exercise in nostalgia as much as bloodletting. The filmmakers are paying their very own tribute to teen-horror pics of the 1970s.

3 stars out of 5 -- Addison Timlin is an appealing heroine....Smart, fun, mid-list horror.
Empire
Rating: 2/5 --
It's an odd, if somewhat original, way of playing with sequel conventions: the plot exists in a reality where the original film also exists. But outside of knowing winks, this is cookie cutter carnage.

Guardian
Rating: 3/5 --
A straightforward, slickly edited psycho-killer flick with moments of razor-sharp tension and a welcome appearance from Alien star Veronica Cartwright as Timlin's granny.

Those who like their shivers served up with a spattering of grey matter should leave with a sunny disposition.

Rating: 2/5 --
So much obvious thought has gone into making the film visually striking that the script seems to have gone unread. There's no other explanation for the woeful stupidity of some of the characters' actions and the blandness of the dialogue.

Product Description:
Inspired by horrific real-life events, director Alfonso Gomez-Rejon's horror remake THE TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN tells the tale of a masked serial killer who returns to terrorize a small Texas town 65 years after vanishing without a trace. As the authorities race to make a connection between the shocking previous events and the current rash of killings, a withdrawn teenage girl may hold the one clue that could stop the killing.
