The reviews I read for this movie led me to believe I was about to watch the most vile, disgusting piece of trash ever produced. That, however, was not really the case here. The movie was confusing, and not the good kind of confusing, because you don't really get an answer in the end. Something just... happens.

I will say, though, that I'm glad Lindsay Lohan stepped out of her comfort zone (even though she is playing twins again) and did a thriller/mystery. Oh you thought it was a horror movie? It may be advertised as one, but it's not horror.

The basic premise is that Aubrey Fleming, a bright, sophisticated, good-natured college student is taken and abused by a really creepy man that has a thing for the color blue. Since other college students mysteriously vanished and turned up dead, everyone is worried. Flash to bad-tempered, poor stripper, Dakota Moss. There is an uncanny resemblance between Dakota and Aubrey (...), so when Dakota wakes up in a hospital bed, everyone thinks it's Aubrey. Despite Dakota's protests, everybody is under the assumption that Aubrey has just lost her mind. She also lost her leg and arm... Have fun trying to understand what I just typed.

The movie was entertaining, but by no means some sort of masterpiece of the genre.

Three Stars
