It's more gory than it is scary

Rating: 6/10 (17 July 2013)

Just saw this movie last week.Fan of the original but only seen the original once.And don't remember much about it and couldn't really compare that with this remake.Other than the blonde girl's acting I thought everyone's acting was pretty decent.Specially Jane Levy's acting is worth mentioning since she is mainly known for comedy.Playing such an intense and horrific character really proves her ability as an actress.There was definitely enough gore .Less CGI and more real make up made them look scary too.But this movie is definitely more gory than it is scary.However I don't like the storyline much.Its kinda common.Reminded me of the Friday the 13th movie.Though i do like the reason for which they didn't leave the cabin.Camera work was OK but could have been better in some of the scenes.Just wanna say that this movies feeds enough when it comes to gore.It can't be compared to the original and people shouldn't either because no remake can ever surpass any original movie.This movie stands OK on its own but since its a part of the franchise now and people can't help but compare it to the original one.I am giving it a 6/10 .
