This is why Hollywood is loosing money...

Rating: 3/10 (16 April 2006)

When I pop in a movie, and sit down in my seat, I expect to be entertained by the genre.
Comedy: I should be laughing. Drama: I should be interested. Horror: I should be scared.
This movie failed to even appear to be a film. This movie, directed by Eli Roth, whom I feel has no grasp on how to make a movie, reeks of Uwe Boll stench from start to finish.
The beginning starts out with nothing more than unneeded nudity, a scene directly ripped out of Eurotrip (Trying to be scary), and an attempt to scare us psychologically with a 'haunted museum'. So for an hour, you sit, twiddling your thumbs in anticipation for something to bounce up on the screen, other than breast.
Then... The Horror... The Horror...
Oh, no. Wait. There's no 'horror' in this film. Rather it's a shameless attempt to gross us out with torture that isn't scary, but painful to watch. This pain will come in two levels; If you haven't seen many films, you will wrench in pain as these tortures start. If you have seen a few films, you'll wrench at how bad the effects are. They are elementry.
Then, finish up with an ending that makes no sense, but still gives a half-done conclusion and fake sense of closure with it's poorly written script.
I had heard nothing but great things about this film. I can honestly say, working in a video store, there are much better films out there, and after seeing this film, I have to say, I can see how this was written by the same guy who gave us Cabin Fever...
