“The Bench” (** out of four) was an overly derivative horror thriller about a woman (Jennifer Byrne) who is rescued by some summer partiers (Matt McClure, Chris Sommerville, and others) and invites them to her vacation house where they soon suspect one of them is a murderer because they all get killed one after another. Film started shooting in 2008 and took 16 years to finish and complete but doesn’t seem worth the effort. Film offers some gore and homages to “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” and “The Evil Dead” but not enough to distinguish it from lots of others of its ilk.
