What the hell

Rating: 1/10 (12 January 2006)

I would like to say that as Eli Roth has been annointed the new face of horror I believe he has a long way to go. He has brought back exploitation movies but find myself feeling like I am watching more along the line of snuff films while watching them. He may like this feeling but I would like to see what he could do with more psychological material. These are the true forms of horror. The movies that make you hind under your covers when you get home rather than make you sick to your stomach while you watch it. Wes Craven looked into this with Red Eye going from chop and crop cinema to a thriller. I think there is room for both forms. I can appreciate the gratuity but it takes too long for the story to get going. Basically this is a fifteen minute porn fest with an hour of introduction.
