Words cannot even describe how bad this movie is. People might defend it for some obscure reasons and that's fine. But don't be fooled into thinking this might be one of those "misunderstood" movies that people complain about just for fun. It really is that bad if not worse!

I would ignore the bad reviews, and the low rating, and give it a shot. I guess most people these days don't understand the concept of a good horror movie. I almost passed because of the silly title, but I was entertained throughout.

On opening night, my sister was looking forward to seeing this title with her friend. Unfortunately she had to refuse last minute due to family stuff, so instead, my sis asked me to go with her. I had never been a fan of horror movies before but she showed me the trailer and i was interested. It wasn't anything special, but it made the movie look interesting, creepy atmosphere, creepy visuals, and the creepy view of one of the lead characters eyes rolling back in his head as he seemed to be possessed (which was a lie and never occurred in the movie). We sat in the theater and the movie began. Almost immediately I noticed how horrific the acting and the way they presented the "spooky" atmosphere was. After spending far too long getting to know everyone and why they are in the movie, the "scary" bit began. I say scary very loosely as throughout the movie, I felt no sense of fear or tension. Most of the scares that I noticed were jump scares meant to get a cheap reaction out of you. There was only one jump that was at least a little creative, involving a character who wakes up after seeing "the bye bye man" and it catches you off guard because it takes A few seconds too long to actually jump, putting you off guard. Other than that however, there was nothing that scared me in a "real" way. The ending stunk as it acted as if it felt like the movie to this point was a joke. It uses cheap excuses to kill off characters and people don't follow normal human behavior. Over all it was a miserable experience and would not recommend.

I picked this up from Pound-land on Blu Ray so I was not expecting much.The story is a pretty generic Nemesis style horror film. Something nasty is coming for our main characters and it doesn't look like it wants to make friends.I actually really enjoyed this. The production and direction are pretty good as is the acting. The majority of the jump scares and creepy moments land effectively and my interest was kept right up until the end.This movie is unlikely to blow your mind but it is well made, does the job and then ends before it out stays its welcome - what more can yo ask for?
