The Refrigerator
“No survivors. Only leftovers.”
Premium Crap. CrapScore 72, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A couple's New York apartment contains a refrigerator with a direct connection to hell. The domestic setup takes time to reach its killer-appliance promise, then becomes delightfully impractical. One for a haunted-household-object night where the kitchen deserves a turn as villain.
