I think classing this in the horror genre is pushing it a bit, it's more in the teen psycho thriller genre, but despite that it's rather a decent watch. I wasn't expecting a great deal to be honest, but rather enjoyed it. I liked the idea behind it, I liked the character of Lucas, and how manipulative he was, and I liked the performances, in particular that of Dylan Sprouse.
If I'm being totally honest, I would have to say I found it a little silly at times, the interaction with Chris, the moment in the science lab, they were some of the more far fetched moments, but in return there were also some very sinister moments, definitely plenty to keep the viewer's attention.
Just goes to show, you can make a decent film, without a massive budget. 6/10

Not bad at all.
Wacko student played by Jughead's twin
Dylan Sprouse shows some acting chops as the uptight super on the ball student who bonds with his English teacher, joins chess club and is way too intense. When he gets a B plus things start to get nasty.
This thriller is different from the usual glossy Lifetime thriller in its slightly awkward camera work and direction. But the acting and story are quite good and things get quite intense so stay tuned.
Worth a watch.
Psychopathic nerd
I wouldn't call that a horror movie, just a psychological thriller. A movie about a psychopath in the making, that can't take no for an aswer. It's not the best thriller ever but it's certainly worth a watch. In the genre of movies about psychopaths it's not a bad movie, I certainly saw much worse before. The acting wasn't bad without being mesmerizing. The movie might be a bit predicatable but nevertheless it's entertaining and it never has dull boring moments. I don't think there will be much people that will hate this movie because there isn't really major bad things to say about it. All in all you won't waste your time watching this movie.
