Not Scary

Rating: 7/10 (3 June 2009)

There are a lot of comments on here saying that "Raimi has created a masterpiece" and that this is a "Truly Scary Horror".... Well let me just say that although it is a very welcome return to horror for Sam Raimi, this is not a very scary movie.
The film itself is OK, it has an OK story and the acting/screenplay seemed pretty solid but if you are a die hard horror fan like me, you won't find this scary! However if you are easily scared and hide behind the sofa when you see the movies that the Sci Fi channel show then you might find this a bit disturbing! The story starts off a little similar to Stephen Kings "Thinner" but goes off in a completely different direction.
If you liked movies such as "The Grudge" and "Lost Souls" then this is for you.
I gave this movie 7/10
