Peter (David Schifter ) and Amanda (Vanessa Ore) live and and own businesses on Carolina Beach. Charles, a grifter (Michael Pare) rolls into town on a sailboat and scams people on home repairs after storm damage. The Wrights have a bird's eye view of the boat. Charles suspects they have seen something he didn't like. There is a sword on the wall in the opening scene. The film had a horrible plot and poor characters. It was like a bad Lifetime production. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

This feels quite amateur in places. Some of the acting is dodgy in places. It also takes a while to get going. I only kept watching it as my wife wanted to. I am glad I did as it is quite a good story in the end. Sometimes it is good to watch something that is not a polished Hollywood blockbuster and a bit rough round the edges.

This movie is an absolute pile of trash, terrible story, terrible acting, do yourself a favour and stay well clear of it, 90 minutes you will never get back.

Not worth a watch. Unless you like wasting 90 minutes. Stupido !

Thoroughly enjoyed this movie, so suspenseful! Wonderful characters and storyline! The setting where it took place was gorgeous. I highly recommend.

My husband and I thought this was very well done with some real surprises throughout. Lots of films do those anticipated jolts that end up being a cat or something, but this was smart. At first we thought it was too obvious of who committed the crime (trying to leave out spoilers here) but that's not the great part of the film! Watch it and see for yourself. This had a great script and beautiful locations.

The movie was interesting but the real surprise was the character "Jerry" played by newcomer Dennis Curran! He was so authentic and perfect for the role. We hope to see him in future movies! If you love Carolina Beach - this is definitely worth watching!!

I don't write many reviews but this movie was so bad in so many ways right from the first frame and opening credits that I had to chime in. Immediately the 1st thing you notice is that the footage running under the opening credits looks like washed out stock footage from the 80s. Sadly this isn't the case and whoever was manning the camera had no idea what he/she was doing. In fact, most of the movie looks this way. Soft picture, dull colors and uncontrolled lighting that seems way too harsh most of the time... From scene to scene the overall look is so inconsistent it just kept me from ever actually caring about the storyline. The acting was also entry level amateur, the cinematography boring and the bargain basement cast of washed up has-been D-movie actors just didn't help at all. This kind of movie may be for some but was just a wasted night for me. I'd call it an exercise in mediocrity except that would be an undeserved compliment.
