not scary at all

Rating: 5/10 (6 January 2006)

This movie just did not do it for me at all. It had all the elements and should have been scary - people out of their element, scary old buildings, blood and gore everywhere, and all that. However, it was NOT scary at all. No one around me seemed to be scared at all and they never jumped and I was at times bored with the whole thing.
It was plenty bloody for all you gore fans but I was more on edge and scared watching War of the Worlds. It had the potential to be a horror classic but it just did not live up to all the hype. It could have shown more of what happened to the other travelers and it was a bit of a stretch to think that THAT many people disappeared there and no one ever knew about it. This movie will make you rethink your "backpack thru Europe fantasies!"
