New flick with Kim Basinger (who surprisingly still looks good), who plays a mothers out shopping for gifts on x-mas eve when she witnesses the murder of security guard by a group of young punks at a mall parking lot. The rest of the night is played out with Kim basically trying to survive, eventually ending up in a nearby wooded area, where she whacks the dudes one by one with various items from her red toolbox.

Surprisingly decent flick. Some nice suspense, interesting story, and not a bad performance from Kim Basinger. Wasn't really buying Lukas Haas as the lead badass villain, but him and his group were okay otherwise. The deaths were also surprisingly violent and bloody. Not necessarily gory, but there are some interesting deaths for each guy. Overall, I enjoyed it. Simple, entertaining, and effective. 7/10 :thumbup3:
