superficial, boring and devastatingly plain.
I was in utter shock after seeing this film.
Eli Roth, member of the Splat Pack making such a boring attempt at horror.
Hardly have I been so un-impressed by a film, an hour long build up with horrendously cliché characters (Russel - Ariel - Monica) take your pick.
For someone who once said "horror should have no limits"... this is the most appalling horror entry in decades. It shouldn't even be classified under horror, it's not a disaster movie either. It was an exercise in cliché's, the short hair strong girl who had problems in her past and has struggled to overcome them. The cute guy who has girlfriend problems and can't help himself but talk about her all the time (while magically still remaining charming, writing songs on his guitar for another girl etc...)
The cool hip guy (modelled directly off Zach Galifianakis because of his huge impact on the hipster scene) who knows everyone and isn't afraid to lie and be a penis to get all the women even though we all know this is merely a Hollywood illusion (just like seth rogan).
This film tries so hard to tell a non existing story that the disaster seems like its only use is to drive the action. To push them from scene to scene. It brought nothing in terms of thrills, horror, shock, gore (the list goes on).
I'm sorry I may be coming off as harsh, but this was a HUGE disappointment and Eli Roth should be told one way or another. If he's gona start trying to sell us garbage now that he's made his millions screw him.
He was given a huge opportunity to advance horror but it looks like he's just another hack...
