wow I just noticed that only rlm wrote his impressions on the film. Well I watched it last night (yeah I've been postponing it for wayyy too long)...
Ok I'm sure everyone knows the basic premise of the film so I'm not gonna bother explaining it.
First off, this movie is short...there's absolutely zero character development and you really could care less about who dies. Only Billy's character was developed more than others and I thought the flashbacks scenes were interesting and creepy.
I thought the acting overall was pretty good which kind of gave the characters a little bit more life. The death sequences weren't too bad, but because of the short running time, some of them were done too quickly...oh and the movie was really predictible too.
All things considered however, this movie was marketed as a no brainer/time killer/watch for fun type flick and I think it succeed in that regard. I didnt' feel like I was grinding through the movie and was entertained (I'm not nitpicky at all when it comes to movies).
So overall I did enjoy the movie...disapointed about Lacey hardly being in it? absolutely...will I get the DVD/HD-DVD when it's out?...you bet |
