just saw the trailers. not that scary. but when i went to the movies with my friends, i went to go see another movie while the other group went to see this movie. when i met up with my friends, they told me the movie was so scary and unexpected.
what are your thoughts? |

Yeah, I'm hyped for it too. I haven't seen a scary movie in a while, and I sorta dig the ones that involve ghosts, demons, etc. like that.

it may not hit theaters, & it probably shouldn't. most of the "hype" concerning this movie is entirely invented by the studio. but, i did go to a screening in chicago & i did see a few satisfied people. however, ultimately, i don't feel my theater (700+ people) was particularly impressed. the film moved from some very creepy & interesting staging or ideas, but ultimately fails in its execution: the acting is poor, the pacing is horrible, the film lends itself to corniness & absurdity. nonetheless, it's not that scary @ all.
if you want to support a feature murdered by the studio... go buy trick r treat on dvd or bluray, it's far more entertaining & even, in some ways, "scarier." |

I laughed a lot throughout the movie. It was predictable and it was only good towards the end. Everyone in the theater was around my age and most of them were satisfied.. ![]() LOL my friend and I thought her leg was gonna get chopped off when she started to get dragged off the bed. Who else thought that too? ![]() |

My friends went to the midnight showing of it and said it was not scary at all and a total waste of time. I don't think I'm going to go see it.

i aint gonna lie.. i went to see it in the theater last friday, it really was a disappoinment. It wasnt scary at all... just some things moving around and jumping out... other than that it kinda sucked. It was a good movie for a $7000 budget, believe me i give them props for that. i just dont believe it was voted scariest movie.

For a low budget movie, it attracted many people. :/

The movie was not worth it, I think I was over analyzing due to the hype everyone built up. I never found any part of the movie to be scary, just a little bizarre.

I was scared, but that's partly due to the fact that the other people made me nervous, and I'm a bit overdramatic.
