    I was in this movie, and it blows!!!

    Hi, well i was in this movie, you might notice me as the texas teen killer, and also the nevada killer ( or whatever the hell the other guy was ) and I also was the set dresser for this film. I hate it, it blows. Rent this flick only to laugh at it and marvel at the incompetance of Gavin Wilding. This movie suck a lot, a whole lot.
