that was your only problem with the movie?

why the hell didn't larry use his shirt to grab the ringing cellphone that was about 2 inches away, rather than use it to cut the bloodflow so he could saw off his leg? why did the killer wear a black hood out apparently everywhere he went? in a movie with carey elwes, danny glover, and monica potter, why couldn't they afford someone other than the writer to play adam so they could have someone who knew how to act .. though that matters less considering the joke performances elwes and glover crapped out.
