Unimaginably boring, dull and imbecilic...

Rating: 1/10 (29 January 2001)

Let me make myself perfectly clear from the start: I went into this movie with *NO* expectations whatsoever. I had no exposure at all to the hype. My younger brother told me how terrible this movie was, but I thought it must have *some* redeeming value -- in fact, it sounded interesting. After seeing it, I realized that it had no redeeming value. It was bad, bad, bad. Dull. The fact that I made it all the way through without turning it off is a minor miracle.
Another thing -- I'm not at all lacking in imagination. I love atmospheric films. I've felt a creepy sensation being in the woods before (although I usually just feel peaceful) and was terrified of the dark as a child (I got over it!) But the fact is, this movie had no atmosphere. It had no acting (though plenty of ridiculous overacting). It had no plot. It had no cinematography. No directing.
In fact, this wasn't a movie at all. I don't know what it was... I don't...
I know... it had to be a farce! I get it now... someone posted several hundred positive reviews using different names on the IMDB, trying to get people to watch it. Must have been whoever released the film. The production company must have been in on it.
Honest... how else to explain why ANYONE would consider this dull, meaningless piece of junk? I feel very cheated that I wasted the money to rent this on DVD. I would feel cheated if someone offered (and paid) me fifty dollars to see it again.
The only film of ANY genre I've seen that was worse was "The Telephone" (Whoopi Goldberg). This film goes down as #2 on the bottom 10 films I've ever seen.
Long after the release of this piece of trash, I remain utterly baffled that anyone with an IQ over 25 (or under 25, for that matter) would see any redeeming value in this film. And I will probably always be baffled.
