The Lost (II) (2006)
4/10
Overly long
8 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Essentially some guy named Ray killed two girls and nobody could find incriminating evidence so he got away. Now more people are dying.

The movie feels like writers trying too hard not to change the book too much. It takes too long before the story really gets going which is disappointing because honestly it should have been a good film.

I don't know why Ketchum insists on writing about unbelievably misogynistic people but essentially it's like the stupidly evil husband from "The Offspring" (also based on one of Ketchum's books if I'm not mistaken) being the entire threat.

While kidnapping girls who annoyed him in minor ways, the killer at one point prances through the house towards a victim incompetently and gets a door slammed into his face. Later while going crazy he practically dances around in anger in a room with five people he's threatened yet despite getting his back close to victims they never bother to disarm him & beat him senseless. The movie ends without a resolution to the situation which is pretty annoying.
