My two cents on a cheap thriller

Rating: 6/10 (10 January 2006)

I was quite disappointed by the time I got to the end of this movie. I agree with the user who commented before me, (Todd Koerner from Hermosa Beach) with his analogy "It certainly felt like it hit all the necessary marks, from nudity and dismemberment to bloody revenge, but at the conclusion, it just felt like eating cotton candy - no real nutritional value, just a sense that I had satisfied some of my prurient appetite without any logical payoff.".
I agree to a point. I almost think that after all the hype there would have been more to it. A quirk or a twist would have been good, but it turned from a somewhat creepy horror movie into an actually laughable ending. The movie wasn't even scary. I don't get quote scared unquote at movies, but I appreciate the horror of it. But this one was off the deep end. No explanation, no reason. Think of it along the same lines as Jeepers Creepers, only with a bit more nudity and gore. I wouldn't say DON'T watch this movie, but I wouldn't advise going to the theater and spending too much on it.
This movie is a rental for sure. Of course with the mostly brain dead young adults in this day and age, I'm sure it will be classified as "incredibly horrific" and the such, but frankly I'm disappointed that Quentin Tarantino would put his name on it just to make money. To be frank, I only paid money to go see it because I was and am a big fan of Tarantino and of his mentor, Robert Rodriguez. Hope to hear some more comments and reviews of this movie.
