Burning Desire Audience Reviews

Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
SunnyHello Nice effects though.
Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
