Review of Red Hook

Red Hook (2009)
4/10
Kinda Boring, Not Much Horror, But Could Be Worse
11 October 2012
An agoraphobic freshman in New York City must join a scavenger hunt to save her boyfriend from a murderous game master.

Right now (October 2012) this film is sitting on a rating of 3.2, which is among the lowest ratings possible (you rarely see anything under a 2.7). Can this film really be so bad? I mean, yeah, it is kind of bad, but not that bad.

I actually liked the concept of a college scavenger hunt. The actual hunt did not start until 34 minutes into the film (the first half hour had mostly annoying character development of characters I had no interest in being developed). But, once it got going, it seemed cool and I really loved the scavenger map with the strings and pins.

Ultimately, though, too little action and not enough reason for me to care.
