Not bad, not good. Just a fun surprise.

I went into this without knowing one thing about it.

And it turned out to be pretty good fun.

Ok, it's not the biggest surprise. But the movie kept me entertained the whole time.

The anti hero Reed had his heart in the right place.

Starting of as a grumpy, lonely, alcoholic nobody somewhere in a dessert. With fresh reluctance he's going to help the damsel in distress Kierra.

Trying to save her, and himself, from some sort of cult with strange rituals (who don't believe in guns)...

The story isn't flawless and the members of the coven/cult are indeed pretty dumb. But the story kept the pace going. With a little bit of humor sprinkled into it.

I wish they did more with Creed's OCD... The practical fx are alright And the last scene gave me a big smile, all though pretty grimm.

You go Marlon!!!
