Credits
Directed by Gregory Dark. Written by Dan Madigan. Starring Glen 'Kane' Jacobs, Samantha Noble, Craig Horner, and Tiffany Lamb.



Porn director Gregory Dark (Between the Cheeks 3) directs this supposed 'gross-out' horror film about an hour and fifteen minutes too long. It's meant to be a brutal slasher film and a vehicle for WWE's Kane (Glen Jacobs) but settles for being tasteless, gruesomely awkward and moronic.

It's written by Dan (WWE writer) Madigan, and produced by WWE mogul Vince McMahon. The screenplay proves to be ridiculous and sloppy without anything else in its favor. It's meant to be in the same vein as Friday the 13th, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes, and succeeds only in investing the film with self-parody for the redneck horror genre film.

Welcome to Jacob Goodnight's lair.

In See No Evil, a group of delinquents are sent to clean the Blackwell Hotel. Little do they know reclusive psychopath Jacob Goodnight (Jacobs) has holed away in the rotting hotel. When one of the teens is captured, those who remain--group that includes the cop who put a bullet in Goodnight's head four years ago--band together to survive against the brutal killer.

A dogfaced chick with religious tattoos named Kira (Samantha Noble) is the apple of Jacob's eye and bascially serves no purpose. I am still trying to figure out what purpose any of these people served because the film is all over the place. Dark has no idea what to do and how to do it. The film is poorly written, poorly acted, and poorly directed. Kane comes off as a hulking baby that is not scary or intimidating at all. Most of the gore is CGI and really comes off as cheesy.

Jacob's not wishing this unfortunate victim a Goodnight in SEE NO EVIL.

To put it bluntly, when the film was over, I wanted my money back and I didn't even pay for it. Save this one for cable.
