okay, I don't really want to be "that guy", but.... I can honestly say this was probably the worst movie I've seen in the past 5 years, and possibly the worst horror I've ever seen. truly hated every minute of it. just an obnoxious, pretentious overblown mess of a film.

I got your back, zombie  :wink:

I've seen plenty of movies that were objectively worse, but this was easily one of the biggest wastes of potential I've ever sat through. 90 minutes of META META META OMG WE'RE SO CLEVER!!!! To hell with it.

I thought it was...OK-parts I really enjoyed-other parts were to-like Zombie and Chaos sed-too...I dunno-"hip".

Tiana liked it-but shes young and un-jaded.
Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)

I didn't hate it as much as you, but I will say that it was a HUGE disappointment.  The movie's "secret" is really stupid and when I got to the end I just thought, "That's it?  You MUST be kidding."

"Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the hell alone."

really stupid

That sums up my entire opinion of that movie perfectly.  Especially the ending lol.

Comedy is subjective, so if it didn't amuse you it didn't work. If you went into it expecting a serious horror movie rather than something that was making fun of genre conventions I can see how you might be disappointed. I loved it! I'm not a huge fan of "cabin" movies outside of EVIL DEAD.

After my first viewing I was amazed at the praise it got. I still think it's "meh" and totally overrated, or maybe I'm just not seeing what others see in this film. Maybe my opinion will change after a second viewing but as of now, it's just "meh".

an indication of how much we hated it would be the fact that we only watched it once,then sent it back.
we never do that!
