I'm so pissed right now! (**MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS**)

I just finished watching this movie about 20 minutes ago. My first feelings after it was over was complete and utter despair, then I got angry at the filmmakers for ruining, what could have been, a very good scary movie. Honestly, if it wasn't for that goddamned heavy handed ending, this would be one of my favorite scary movies. It's a movie, not a documentary on white slavery!

All of you people saying these characters are stupid and the scenarios are unrealistic have, apparently, seen way too many movies with stupid characters and unrealistic setups to notice the difference. Sure, there were some dumb moments, but, for the most part, these characters acted the way most regular people would react when confronted with some aggressive, crazy dude with a gun.

From the comfort of your couch it's easy to say that you would have fought back sooner, but, more often than not, that's just not true. How do you think groups of people are so easily taken hostage by one crazy dude with a gun? Because no one wants to be that person who gets shot for "trying to be a hero." So, everybody is too scared to do anything. That's reality.

Anyway, back to my original rant.. What really, REALLY bothered me about this movie was the ending. The good girl, the smart girl, the girl with the forgiving heart, the girl who kept fighting back, deserved to survive. She earned it!

Scary movies are supposed to do a good job of scaring us, give us a character we can identify with, then let us all breath again by allowing that character we identify with survive!

Above all, movies are supposed to entertain us, not leave us curled up in fetal position and feeling that all is lost. I really need a hug right now.
