Helpful Score: 2
An amazing, un-put-downable story about six teens who get stranded in the hood and end up in a situation that can only be described as "House of 1,000 Corpses" meets "The Hills Have Eyes" meets "Wrong Turn," set in a bad part of the city.
What made this book great was the descriptions, many of them gut-wrenchingly disgusting. In fact, I took off half a star from my rating because the images are never going to leave my mind and they are seriously messed up.
I'm glad Keene didn't pretend to write another zombie novel (who told him he could do that?) and stuck with his forte, which is suspenseful horror. If you need a quick read that will keep you on the edge of your seat, this is it.
Didn't care too much for the change-of-heart scenes, but I guess Keene had to get himself out of the painted corner somehow.
