Interesting article about the film's success and how it was rescued from home video obscurity. Mentions they're working towards a sequel.

They should really add theaters again for it this weekend and buy a bunch of ads to air this week during shark week.

Such a great, tightly constructed, well-shot thriller. I am pleased by its sleeper-hit success.

I wasn't as impressed but I'm still happy for its success. It's nice to see a new studio have a successful film out of the gate plus we'll likely keep getting movies like it which I am totally ok with :). Plus its story of being rescued from being a Direct-to-DVD film is an interesting one.

I liked the film and great to see its success. I could only imagine what they would have gone through to take such risk.
