Bad, bad, bad ... or in one word: Bad!

Rating: 1/10 (23 April 2006)

Now for this "special" movie, that I watched theatrically, I will specify in various paragraphs, what I didn't like about the movie. When I went to watch the movie, I didn't thought it would be a classic. But boy if I knew how bad it was/is I wouldn't bothered to go in at all.
Let's start from the actors. And if I didn't knew the actors I'd be wondering where they had found those people (maybe they dragged someone in from the street?). But there is an explanation: Sam Neill & Co are humans too and they need the money. To pay bills and stuff. But even they must be ashamed of this. And they didn't even bother to act at all! Not that it would have elevated this movie to much better ranking place, but it might have been a little more pleasant to watch. Or at least they could have tried to have while shooting the movie, but even that wasn't possible (it seems that way if you watch the movie).
But the actors are not the ones responsible for this mess. First of all you have to ask yourself if the scriptwriter had anything in mind except "a cool idea"! Because the outline did sound quite good. But when you have so much plot holes in a movie ... you just wish it is over. For the movie and the characters! You just don't care for people who act irrational and only just about compete who'll say the worst line in the movie. Irrational "acting" is something that you are used to in horror movies (most of the thrill will happen, just because of that behavior), but what happens here is just about every bad cliché thrown in. And mixed together, they don't taste any good, and they also smell bad too! But a bad script can be helped by a good director. If there was one here at hand ... If if if ... but there was none. Quite the contrary, this one (director was meant) isn't good, but he's bad! So he let all of the above happen and more. When people have a bad thing happening and then just jump out the next moment as if nothing happened, you're not only confused, but more than a bit angry. Mass delusion anyone? It must've been something in the tea or coffee!
Talking about something, like you don't believe it exists, just to be afraid of the same thing that doesn't "exist" the next second ... at least that's what the script lines were that came out the actors mouth ... (you didn't get it? Neither did I while watching the movie!) It's just so f**'d up ... I get mad thinking about it ... The movie touched a nerve. And one things for sure, if I ever do something bad again, something real bad, I shall be punished with watching this movie along "Kinetta" ... But if you're a masochist, you can do that in your free time too ... I warned you! But if you don't want to waste your time, just don't watch this "classic"! (and yes I knew that some people will be offended by this, those same people who think this movie is good. Can't believe it, but some people just seem to enjoy the formula bad acting/bad director/bad script ... knock yourself out!)
