Synopsis: 20 years ago, Rachel accidentally shot and killed her brother Luke with what she thought was an air pellet gun but ended up being a real gun. Or so she thought. Now, other people who were there that night are getting murdered, and she's worried she and her family are next. 

This was just ok. It had an interesting premise, but was so incredibly repetitive, I found myself skimming through large chunks. I also thought one major twist wasn't explained particularly well, so it felt like it was largely for shock value but not fully thought out. 

It wasn't terrible, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend.
