Such a low rating.......Why ?


I have seen many movies ten times worse than this with higher ratings. I thought it was a good solid horror and I really enjoyed it. The only downside to it for me is the acting of Shannyn Sossoman for some reason I don't like her, or her acting.......Oh well.









Victims...........arent we all.

The dialogue is bad, the acting is bad, the scares are mediocre at best, the characters are stupid, the ending was...nothing..., the deaths were so lame and timid compared to the original!

Sample line:

*Girl takes batteries out of phone*
*Phone rings*
Girl: "There's no batteries in there!"

NO *beep* Sherlock!

There ya go! Low rating is well deserved!

I agree.

This had a 3.4 rating on IMDB and while it wasn't the best, I don't think it was THAT bad.

I have also seen some terrible movies. While this wasn't perfect I did find the apparitions, ringtone and atmosphere incredibly creepy. While the protagonist was a little rigid I didn't think it was enough to tank the movie.

Overall I felt it was an average, solid story. Nothing spectacular but nothing terrible either.

I liked it.
