The Evil Robbery

Rating: 2/10 (12 October 2013)

This gets 2 only because the premise had promise; interesting, that no one would believe the girl who encounters a demon because she's withdrawing. Not great, not original, but OK. However. That's it, and the reviews here praising this idiot slasher crap seem to feel it's worthy of being a genre itself - that is, moronic scenes setting up mutilation. I don't get it. I don't get why the dude feels the urgent need to read aloud the words in the forbidden book, especially as he reveals having some respect for this sort of thing. Don't get how a Wal- Mart carving blade can slice through bone or how a girl does not immediately bleed to death after. Then again, nobody bleeds realistically here. Back to the lovers of this: are you seriously claiming that inane reactions make a movie work, as in the ABSURD (and tired) moments of emotional pause when the demon takes the brother down memory lane, or the idiot blonde goes into the cellar cause Mia sounds kinda scared? Worst of all is the math. The book makes it clear: five souls taken, then the real abomination comes with the blood rain. Four, demon. You only got four. Nurse, brother, idiot blonde, and book dude. But I'm wasting everyone's time. Slasher porn, and really bad even for that adolescent 'genre'.
