AT THE AGE OF SIX, MARTIN BRISTOL IS KIDNAPPED BY GRAHAM SUTTER, AN INSANE MADMAN AND SERIAL KILLER. MARTIN IS FORCED TO WATCH SUTTER AS HE KILLS HIS VICTIMS. FIVE YEARS LATER, ALLISON COMES TO LIVE WITH HER AUNT AND UNCLE, AND ONE DAY WHILE OUT JOGGING SHE SPOTS MARTIN IN THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE WHERE HE LIVES. WHEN ALLISON GOES IN TO TRY AND FIND HIM, SHE GETS CAPTURED BY SUTTER, WHO THEN GOES AFTER HER FAMILY.
THIS MOVIE IS A PREQUEL TO MALEVOLENCE. WITH THAT BEING SAID, IF YOU HAVE SEEN MALEVOLENCE, THEN YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO ALL THE CHARACTERS IN THIS MOVIE. HOWEVER, WHILE THIS IS A HORROR AND SLASHER MOVIE, IT RELIES ON PSYCHOLOGICAL TERROR TO PROVIDE THE FEAR. GRANT RICKABY AS SUTTER EMBODIES THE ROLE OF INSANITY WITH A CHILLING CREEPINESS, VIOLENT AND ABUSIVE ONE MOMENT AND THEN CARING THE NEXT. THE REST OF THE CAST IS ALSO VERY GOOD: ALEXANDRA DADDARIO AS ALLISON, MICHAEL BIEHN AS HER UNCLE, NOLAN FUNK AS HER LOVE INTEREST AND SPENCER LIST AS THE ELEVEN YEAR OLD MARTIN DOES AN EXCELLENT JOB, CONVEYING HIS EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS THROUGH HIS ACTIONS SINCE HE DOESN'T SPEAK A WORD.
RATING 3.5 OUT OF 5
