mood just went from freakish scary to plain silly

Rating: Null/10 (12 January 2004)

The script is basically non-existent, since most of the movie is less chitchat and more freakish hellish fatal death accidents one after another just like in the Friday the 13th films except here it's not a physical being but an invisible stalker/killer called death. On video, the whole point is to watch the gruesome grisly horrible scenes, and skip/avoid the nonsense talk about death's plan that the characters discuss exhaustingly throughout the movie, which is just plain silly and dull. I repeated and slow-motioned every silly death scene just to see which one's actually looked real, which some looked downright convincing and all with the computer special effects but of course some didn't, like the glass scene. I know this is simply a movie but come on, fake or not, can a plate glass actually pancake a human being into tomato sauce? That scene should have been cut immediately or at least find a more realistic approach like use a concrete cinder block. They had some good ideas this time around, but most of the stuff is just over the top movie fun, for it's not enough to shock the crap out of anyone unlike the first movie for example with the airplane scene, the best scene in the entire movie. 6/10
