The name of Nick Stahl, the young cast and the attractive cover of the VHS made me buy and watch this flick, expecting to see a good teen slash movie. What a crap! The full of clichés screenplay, the dialogs and the performances are awful, dreadful, very bad, terrible, horrendous – summarizing, a complete waste of time. There is no horror, black humor, only an absolutely boring story, with shameful plot points. The film begins with six characters, indeed three couples, together like a group of friends, but indeed very nasty persons that seems to be enemies, playing a ridiculous senseless game called "Taboo", and with each one of them writing yes or no for certain taboo issues. That is it: no previous development of the characters, the viewer does not know who they are, their motives and relationship. Then, there is an ellipsis to one year later, and the same group is gathered together in a New Years Eve party, insulting each other in a very sordid way. But the plot and the twists are so ridiculous, predictable, mediocre and unbelievable that do not deserve any additional line in my review. One advice only: do not waste your time or money on this garbage, you will certainly regret. My vote is one (awful).Title (Brazil): "Taboo – Jogando Com o Assassino" ("Taboo – Playing With the Killer")

This was a great Thriller film, in that it had half of the elements of the thriller. Flashbacks, drunk exes, sick fantasies, hunting rifles and wine cellars. You barely spend 15 minutes getting to know them before they say the famous, "One Year Later". A great movie to watch with college buddies. Its amusing because they don't start you off with a plot line and just throw you right into the movie. For those of you whom take their movies with a splash of drunken freakish adventure, this one is for you. But definitely watch this with friends. Its quite quotable. This is a movie about seven sins involving sex. Incest, rape, infidelity, hypocrite, prostitute, homosexuality, and prostitution. How they are going to pay for their sins.

Did everyone else here see the same movie I did? I bought the DVD the other day because I'm a huge Eddie Kaye Thomas fan (I thought he stole all three American Pies) and slightly obsessed with Amber Benson (I still miss Buffy!), and I was not let down. In fact I thought it was one of Eddie's stronger performances, and an all-around really good movie. If I had one complaint, it's about the DVD. Where are the extras? I know I shouldn't expect as much from a film that was obviously made pretty cheaply, but I would have expected something more tha JUST the movie. So while I'm going to give the movie a nine (the rest of you are just plain WRONG), I'm only going to give the DVD a five.

I'm embarrassed to be writing this review. I say that because those of you reading it will know that I sat through the whole thing and that is embarrassing to admit even to strangers. But I just had to warn those who read the viewer comments on IMDb before they watch a film not to watch this one. It's the least I can do. This is a bad movie! Trust me. The plot is goofy. The acting is amateurish. And the directing, camera work, sets, costumes, etc. are all second rate. Let it go.
