Finally got my hands on The Burning SPOILERS


I liked it a lot. Music, special effects, and the pacing was good. I loved how it slowly built up with minimal kills until the raft scene where Cropsy surprises everyone. That was excellent!

Only thing I didn't like was the "twist" that the counselor Todd(?) was one of the pranksters who burned Cropsy. It was kind of an unnecessary reveal since Cropsy was never really going after Todd at all. I liked the idea that those kids never got in trouble or killed by Cropsy.
