- GoofsThe death cap mushrooms Shirley points to don't resemble death cap mushrooms at all, which are usually white and flat-capped. It's entirely possible this is another example of Shirley's psychological manipulation.

Kept Watching
I kept watching this movie to see if it would get any better. It didn't. I only gave it a five because for the most part the acting was good.
