Fear the Night ★★

DON’T get me wrong – Maggie Q definitely has screen presence.

But in more than 20 years, this Hawaiian actress has mostly appeared in average material.

Her latest, thriller Fear the Night, is on par with the majority of her B-grade filmography. Borrowing from a whole bunch of other recent, and mostly better, films, Q plays a former army veteran reluctantly needing to use all her skills to drag her friends out of a dangerous situation.

In this instance, Q’s character Tess is with her sisters and their friends at the world’s worst hen’s weekend at a non-descript house in the middle of a non-descript town.

The local drug dealers inexplicably think the ladies are in the same business and stopping them from getting to something valuable.

There is very little character development or progression as Tess and friends fight back.

Nothing to write home about. Oh wait, I just did that.
