Maybe I've read and heard too much about this film before I finally got around to see it, because I have to say it really disappointed me. OK, so the actors were good and the film has an interesting premise, but I can honestly say I wasn't scared ONCE during the whole movie. On the contrary, I became more and more bored as the film progressed. By the end, I was glad I never wasted ticket money to see this in the cinema, but waited until it came on cable.
Here are a few of the reasons why I dislike the movie (WARNING - POSSIBLE SPOILERS):
This terribly overrated movie was a great disappointment to me. Maybe I don't scare easily, but this movie certainly could have made more of an effort to at least try to scare me...
Rated on a dice (from 1 to 6) I give this movie a 2.
Here are a few of the reasons why I dislike the movie (WARNING - POSSIBLE SPOILERS):
- All the "scary" parts take place in complete darkness, where you are unable to see anything at all. It's confusing and irritating.
- You never see what stalks the three main characters in the woods - you only hear what I guess is supposed to be scary sounds in the background (but it sounds more like someone raking the lawn...)
- No music whatsoever (to create a more scary ambiance).
