Slow buildup ruined.

Rating: 6/10 (28 March 2011)

I saw this movie at a premiere, and wanted so much to like it. It started to build up quite nicely and then abruptly the movie takes a turn into hacksville, driven by Hamfist and his girl Ms. Boring.
Heavy handed introduction of 'comedy', over explanation, in your face 'scares' which insinuate the audience is too stupid to get it on their own, and an other realm which is boring as all get out. Even the supposed super bad guy was laughable because he looks like he was lifted right from another movie. With all they could have done with the theme, and the scare credit they had built up it was such a damned disappointment. The best I can say it was like coffee which had too much sugar in it, the thing that was supposed to accentuate it, was overdone, ruining it.
Final Analysis: It did have a few shocks, but they were muted in the end when they let the film go off target. Also, the tagline on the poster gave it all away. That is just poor judgment, and quite sad to see.
