Nothing more than a guilty pleasure. Plus James Marsden was so hot at 22.

February 27, 2009One of the many teen horror movies to come out after the popularity of Scream. It was ok but nothing memorable.

July 5, 2008This is a cool teen thriller. Suprised it's not more well know as I only saw it through a recommendation. It's good fun if predictable. Very similar to The Faculty and with a strong cast.

James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette
Put together by some of the production team responsible for "The X Files," "Behavior" frequently captures the same weird/wacky atmosphere found in some of that series' more lighthearted episodes. Full Review

...the filmmakers have such contempt for their target teenage audience, they don't bother with explanations.

Maitland McDonagh, Film Journal International
A high-concept horror picture that squanders its premise from the first frame. Full Review

Widgett Walls, Needcoffee.com
It's like the makers of this film were so desperate to get a film together that they went to a horror paint-by-numbers book to get everything they needed. Full Review

Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
Marsden has blue eyes and clean-cut looks tailor-made for a Bop pinup--and all the emotional depth and acting range of the page it would be printed on. Full Review
