Worse than most of the horror b-movies of late.

Rating: 3/10 (14 May 2006)

This film was abysmal. If you liked the games then go ahead and watch it, but if not then i don't think there's much for you here. The film is comprised of alternating scenes of the lead character screaming (it really is loud, so turn down your speakers) and her husband shouting. Now, the scenes where she is screaming contain all the usual gory monsters and all that stuff, but there's no real horror or fear here. there's no attempt to make the viewer feel uneasy if they've ever seen blood before and, of course, the lead characters constant screaming will stay with you for several hours after you leave. the scenes with her husband are generally quite dull and don't really add anything to the film (since the narrative doesn't really exist). if you've read a blurb/synopsis for this film then thats what happens in the film. there's nothing else there.. at all.
overall I'm giving this a pathetic 3/10 because my ears are still ringing and i got no entertainment from this film whatsoever. 13 ghosts, house on haunted hill, resident evil, et al, all do this so much better so just watch one of them instead.
