WHAT A GOD AWFUL MOVIE


Stupid, stupid, stupid...every character is unsympathetic, Mischa's character does one stupid thing after another. Acting was second rate. I wanted to bang my head into a wall after watching this drivel.

I'm watching it on Netflix now and I am shocked at how awful the writing is. The acting isn't much better.

EDIT/UPDATE: I didn't get any better.

I just watched it on Netflix as well and it was completely terrible. I kinda wanted to like it because of Mischa Barton, but it was a mess. I found myself fast forwarding through the end.

If you found yourself fast forwarding through this movie till the end then of course you will not understand nor like this film. This is an intelligent movie for an intelligent audience. Sadly this is further proof that horror films will not get the smart treatment when it comes to scripts do to replies like from this forum. This film is about overcoming fear and lost time. I sense most viewers have no idea what the themes of this film are really about. Oh well there loss.

8/10 for me

I seriously hope you're trolling. If you're not, I just lost a little more faith in humanity.

I must thank you guys and this board in general. I spotted this in my local DVD hire shop the other day and I thought it looked really good from the cover. I nearly paid £2.50 to hire it then and there, but I thought iI'd check on here first. Looks like I've saved £2.50 and 2 hours of my life that would otherwise have been lost. I'll be giving this one a wide berth I think. sounds like a real dud.

I've seen a LOT worse than this movie, but it wasn't good. Far from it. The storyline ended up being not what we expected it to be, which was a disappointment, the plot holes were ridiculous, and with crappy cut and paste writing/editing it just made no sense. I realize Mischa's role was the typical horror movie chick, to do all the things one would think someone of her character's intelligence would not do in real life, but that even got a little bit out of hand. Was a good idea, but it was executed horribly.
