My experience watching it


Day one -50 minutes in, sober on a Thursday night-:
This movie holds the recipe to be a winner right? Well, my friends, I quickly realized that it was a pretty bad failure. The set designs looks cheap, the atmosphere is unattractive and the actors pretty much all suck especially Jake Gyllenhall who looks like a loony tune.
Day 2 -finished movie HAF and tipsy on a TGIF-:
Man, I just caught the irony and this movie is nuts!! It’s like watching the live Looney Tunes on mescaline. Only this time they say stuff like:” listen to my intelligent mind” or “look at my exhibit, it is bloody booming.” or “The admiration I had for your work has just completely evaporated!”. I officially hand out two of my personal Lifetime Awards for this movie: “Worst death of lead character ever in a horror movie” for Gyllenhaal and “Most useless role ever” for Mr Malkovich. If this was listed as a comedy I’d give it a 5 but since it’s not I give it a 4.5/10 as in: the movie’s a fuckin’joke but the punchline’s pretty funny.

You rate it higher than I, my friend.

I agree it was a mess. Cheap jump scares were unnecessary. This story could've been done without them. Building psychological terror would've been more appropriate. What a waste of great cast.

This movie was so bad. Worse than I thought it would be.
