Vacancy (2007)


You know a movie is forgetable when you can't even recall the 2 leads character's name. It started quite promisingly in fact when we see this couple (Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale) in a car bickering over the smallest issue of whether they almost run over a squirrel or a raccoon.

Like all slasher flick in its genre, their car broke down, and they are now stuck in a motel straight from "Phsycho." Surely alarm bells should start ringing when you're the only occupant in this motel, how the heck do the owner survived if not to sell the video of them slashing you?

So we see this movie from the point of view of the couple as they waited in the room to either be rescued or be slashed. To me it just doesnt add much to this genre which we're so used to by now.

5/10 forgetable.
