I can't believe i just sat through that whole movie. I would've walked out but i was with 8 other people. It is seriously the worst movie i've ever seen, and i've seen this:

Nothing happens in the entire movie. Nothing. Three people die, all of which we don't know anything about, and there isn't any character development whatsoever. And the villain doesn't do anything. He just walks around a lot. And then there's the acting. Oh, the acting.

I feel so emotionally drained, like i just got the Alex de Large eyes-held-open film treatment or something. But honestly, i'm actually feeling really sick and nauseas just from watching it. Has anyone seen it? I really need to talk to someone about it. Maybe a psychologist.

If i hear a phone ring in a silent room in the next week or two i'm gonna find something sharp and conductive to jam in a power-point.

How can i be this emotionally scarred just by watching a movie that wasn't very scarey, shocking, or controversial in any way?

Then there's the pointlessness of remaking the original "killer in the house" flick, the one that spawned the genre, more or less. At least the original had Carol Kane.

"Copper Mountain" references will always get a big LOL out of this guy.

I'm laughing that you went to see this hoping it'd be decent.

i was hoping it would be bearable, especially given the context of a dinner/movie thing with friends. We did this el cheapo movie/dinner deal with this restuarant that's affiliated with the cinema, and this was the only movie we could see at that time and still get the cheap dinner. Oh how wrong i could be.
