The Emo Film

Rating: 5/10 (7 July 2010)

Maybe it's the distracting soundtrack: those who lived their teens while this synthepop horror ruled the airwaves are now the people in control, and they likely re-lived the superficial 80s through the process.
The film didn't made it for me. It was trying too hard on too many terrains, with no sense of measure, no subtility. I was a non-scary horror movie, a flat-falling comedy, a slack suspense, a mundane fantastic drama. I kept on expecting something, anything, and it didn't happened.
Still, maybe as maturity will set in, the guy that made that movie could be someone to watch out for in the future. He was evidently passionate about this movie, that I feel is personal. But as such, it looked to much like spoiled suburban American teens having ill-defined tantrums. And I am either too old or not emo enough to appreciate it.
