Extreme Insult To All REAL Horror Movies

Rating: 1/10 (30 October 2004)

My name is Draven and I LOVE HORROR MOVIES. You name the horror movie, I have most probably seen it. I first saw Ringu, long before "The Ring" came out. I have seen horror movies from all over the world. Because I have an extreme love for horror movies, I wanted to see Saw. I saw a lot of promos for this movie and a lot of comments saying "its scarier then Se7en" or "the serial killer makes Hannibal Lecter look like Dora the Explorer" and "Not just blood and gore, but clever blood and gore." So, I am thinking, "wow, this has got to be a great movie, right?...right?"
This is BY FAR the worst "horror" movie, I have ever seen in my life. This is a f*cking sad statement when I have to say this, but The Blair Witch Project was better then this and we all know The Blair Witch Project should have never been made. Calling Saw a horror movie is the most extreme insult to actual good horror movies. Don't get me wrong, the plot and storyline for were GREAT! But the acting and the way it was done and the ending were lame. It seems more like a wannabe Action flick then a Horror movie.
*Plot* - Psycho guy kidnaps people and finds ways for them to kill themselves.
Psycho guy never takes part in the actual killings. He just is a master planner and the ways he comes up with killing people is great. It is basically like a huge puzzle that they have to do to free themselves. If they are able to free themselves they feel great to be alive and value everything that life has to offer. <- This part of the movie is great.
*Acting* - A first you see two people who find themselves trapped and chained to a pipe on opposite ends of the room. The acting by both characters is completely lame and pretty unrealistic. In one scene, "Adam" is supposed to "die" and the way he goes about doing it is like, "You have to be f*cking kidding me." It is something you would see from a child who is playing to get shot and dead.
*Ending* The ending was very interesting. I won't tell you what happened in case you still decide to see it. But, the way it is done is so pathetic. At the end, my girlfriend and I (who also LOVES Horror movies to death) were both like, "That's it????? That sucked."
Afterwards we started talking about and honestly were thinking about going to the theater and asking for our money back. Everyone billed this up to be the "instant classic" or "Scariest movie in the last decade." I am sorry, if any of you actually like Horror movies, don't waste your money.
