It's truly astounding how much this movie fails the test. It follows 5 female friends - Kate, Dorothy, Paige, Lily and Shelley - who are stalked by psychotic killer. Shelley isn't in the movie for long, since she's the opening kill girl, but other four appear together troughout entire movie. And all they talk about are men. These women managed to outstage characters from "Sex and the City" in my opinion. I give it dubious, because they do exchange some lines of dialogs that aren't about men, but they look like this:

(Paige takes off her jacket and shows cleavage)
Lily: Jesus, Paige! It's a funeral!
Paige: What?
