This movie is sufficiently terrifying, despite a few isolated moments of bad acting. The story does not make use of Gina Carano’s fighting ability, but that’s part of the point of the film and it allows her acting to shine. This is her best acting in a role to date, but the real showstealer is Nick Searcy who is riveting as the main villain. However, the pacing is rough and the stakes keep getting shifted in ways that make it a bit difficult to keep up with. And if it bothers you in a film when characters can’t hit a target that’s right in front of them then don’t even try to watch this one, as that constitutes the bulk of the runtime.

Content warning: scalping, attempted rape
