The Victim (2012)

Starring: Michael Biehn, Jennifer Blanc, Danielle Harris
Director: Michael Biehn

Premise:
Two girls are out partying with a couple of off duty cops when one of the girls is killed. The other girl escapes and seeks help at a stranger's remote cabin. Soon the cops comes to clean their mess but find a surprise.

My Take:
It's an ultra low budget exploitation movie which actually looks great.
The biggest problem I had in this flick was with the dialog. For example, there's one heated scene where the two main characters shout out questions at each other to avoid the real subject. It's rather ridiculous. But the over all story is decent. Michael Biehn also wrote the script.

Rating: In the middle
