Trying to get away from his family, a man finds a new apartment and turns it into a bachelor pad as a place to sleep with a multitude of women hitchhikers he picks up, but when a series of strange disappearances plague the women who visited the place realize the landlords are murdering the women to fix his blood-disease.
This is a terribly dull and completely worthless horror entry. The fact that there's hardly any horror at all in the film is the biggest and most damaging prospect, effectively making it so dull and lifeless that the film does almost nothing at all during it's running time. The fact that it rests so much on it's relationships between the two couples at the center of the film rather than it's horror is where it falls foul, making them the central point when they aren't that good or exciting to begin with. The sibling angle is so lamely done it's still up in the air at the end of the film, as it seems to incorporate aspects of both a brother-sister bond as well as an incestuous air between them in certain scenes. The other angle with the marriage-on-the-rocks story is not that much better, full of never-ending scenes that are purely not that scary at all. That's the film's biggest problem, nothing in here is considered scary, and what happens between them is not that great at providing anything to counter the boredom these non-horror sequences create. The amount of time spent on those angles are nothing worthwhile at all, providing no scenes of value and just continuing a storyline that isn't all to concerned with horror aspects at all. That also means that we don't get anything remotely close to the horror genre until the end, with only a mildly interesting chase scene and the frequent nudity to provide the goods until then. The scares are missing, the gore is non-existent until the end, and the kills are relegated to simply being just the scenes of the victim being drained of blood while being setup in the blood-transfusion contraption. A chance to highten the tension when she discovers the location could've been something but it turns into a secondary seduction angle with the two that never crosses over into anything else so it leaves such a bad aftertaste that there's almost no need for it. Even the fact that it's a sleazy-feeling film is neutered by the fact that it's only in one scene and despite all the different scenes in here that provided opportunity to do so, it doesn't offer anything up, making the film even more of a cheat and providing even more flaws to hate against it. There's hardly anything worthwhile about this one. The fact that the film's lone action scene in the middle of the film comes from a rather nice chase scene is to be commended as there are a couple good things about it. The fact that it's a rather energetic scene with the different characters going out after the escaped victim through the woods which not only has somewhat chilling cat-and-mouse confrontatioins butalso a dark conclusion and it makes for an effective atmosphere. The sleaze factor here is also rather nice, with the way it manages to create an odd and somewhat unnatural feeling with the relationships it creates with the two couples mixing it up as well as the general fact of what they're doing offering up some rather nice sleaze. The last bit in here that works is the film's nicely done climax, which is where the main action occurs. From the chase through the house to the different stalk-and-slash tactics used, it offers up some interest. Further helping it is the film's only real gore scenes, which aren't much to talk about but at least it offers up something. These here are all that work for the film.
Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence, Nudity, several sex scenes and drug use.
