Review of P2 (2007) by Robbie K — 04 Dec 2018
A businesswoman (Rachel Nichols) SyFy's Continuum ; is pursued by a psychopath (Wes Bentley) after being locked in a parking garage on Christmas Eve.
I will admit I sought this film out for female protagonist (Rachel Nicholls) who conveys an excellent performance. Nicholls doesn't do any of the stupid stuff that the scream queens usually do; there's no heading into dark and gloomy places with no explanation here. Just a terrified woman desperately trying to get out of an increasingly horrifying situation.
It's not without it's flaws, that's for sure, but we don't watch movies like this because we want anything deep.
This is compellingly grim, suspenseful, and atmospheric stuff that should provide an effective antidote for movie lovers tired of the more traditional, upbeat Christmas fare.
