“I admit, Iu0026#39;m usually rough on many horror movies that come out nowadays, because…well…they suck. u0026quot;P2,u0026quot; on the other hand, has many exciting moments and I was engaged the whole way through. The acting is solid. The actress who plays the lead does a great job at conveying real terror. I also like that she wasnu0026#39;t the typical big-breasted female lead who seems ripped from the pages of Maxim magazine. She is attractive, yes, but not your traditional Hollywood beauty, whou0026#39;s cast simply so she can have a scene where sheu0026#39;s taking a shower and has to flee from the villain naked, with her gargantuan boobs bouncing in close-up. I loved Wes Bentley in u0026quot;American Beauty,u0026quot; and was quite disappointed to find out that he fell off the radar after delivering that great performance as Ricky Fits. He would only pop up occasionally in braindead slasher flicks like u0026quot;Soul Survivors.u0026quot; In u0026quot;P2u0026quot; he was given a chance to redeem himself, and that he did. He is a perfectly creepy villain, especially with those dark, piercing eyes. The movie is not without flaws. It has some of the expected fake scare moments and, without giving anything away, letu0026#39;s just say that Iu0026#39;m SURE it would take less than 20 minutes for the cops to show up after you make a 9-1-1 call. The filmmakers do a great job at setting up a creepy tone, starting off the film by playing u0026quot;Santa Babyu0026quot; over the opening credit sequence. Thatu0026#39;s ten times creepier than, say, playing a standard horror movie score. If youu0026#39;re sick and tired of many of the braindead teen slasher flicks that have been hitting theaters lately, this should come as a refreshing surprise. I think this film is sadly underrated.”
