Well..
Not that bad
Once again it's the wannabe movie reviewers comparing B movies to A movies. While Scream was a solid comedy, this one was not. This kept me glued to the screen wondering who was next. The killer was a demented SOB, as usual there were several times where he could have been stopped in the real world..... but I guess that wouldn't make for good cinema lol. Hopefully you've never read any of my other reviews, because here's where the part where they all sound the same. Forget about the naysayers and give it a watch and decide for yourself. Remember it's a B flick. The action is good, some believable, some not lol. Nuff Said Mike Out.
Mediocre
It starts off ok, but falls apart quickly and by the final 30 minutes I was ready to shut it off. I'm giving it 4 stars because of the effort it made, but as a whole it's just not a very good horror film.
With a little tweaking it could have been really great. You have 4 friends trapped in a cabin with a killer outside who just murdered one of their friends, and a fight for survival ensues.
It really could have been a suspenseful film with such a premise, but it surprisingly falls flat after the friend is slashed by the killer and dies in her friend's arms.
Instead of the rest of the friends fighting to survive, they snort coke and bicker with each other...and one guy takes a moment to plant a surprise kiss on the mouth of his straight friend. WTH was that about lol. It seemed like it was squeezed in just to be PC and please a certain crowd. Whatever. Stuff like that detracts from the film.
Watch if you must, but there's a plethora of better cabin in the woods slashers out there than this. 4 stars for the effort.
