I'm probably going to get some hate for this, but I didn't think the movie was all that bad. And I typically hate ghost movies in general. I felt they did a decent job creating some creepy scenes with the limited amount of resources they had. Bad acting aside, it was pretty well done, all things considered. For comparison, I thought Blair Witch sucked ass. This was better, imo.
It probably also helped having the worst possible expectations going into the movie. After reading this thread, I figured it would be pure shit.

I guarentee if there wasnt all this hype n shit, nuttkase, horror1 and all the other people who said that didnt like it (and I know some of these peopel actually have good taste in movies too) wouldnt have been disappointed if there wasnt all this hoopla about it. and I take some blame for hyping it up too much. I always do that shit and I know I shouldnt.
Im like that too though.. expectations and hype can KILL a movie for me.. yet I cant stop myself from reading the reviews. for instance, watchmen.. If I woulda watched that movie knowing NOTHING about it to begin with, Im pretty sure I woulda liked it. But because of all the hype and because of my high expectations, I didnt like it. It was a let down. And same goes for movies that get negative reviews.. If I go into a movie with very low expectations, Im gonna be impressed even if the movie is just half way decent.
And theres nothing wrong with thinking that way. Its just the way people are with movies and sites like rottentomatoes and imdb are just fueling that mentality.
and of course you're gonna have people like coldblooded who determine whether or not they'll like a movie before they even see it.
everyones a goddamn critic these days.
and lol@people talking about the acting. Didnt know we had a bunch of siskels and eberts in this muthafucka. some of yall wouldnt know good acting if it jumped up and bit you in the pussy.
