This Project Is AVERAGE

Rating: 5/10 (3 August 1999)

While I must applaud the makers of the film for their creativity and originality, I must point out that they forget something in this very unusual horror film. THE HORROR! You say its scary because its left to the imagination, perhaps, but only when done in a certain style. Only several people could do that, foremost, Alfred Hitchcock. What this film does it bring a kind of mediocre Hitchcock to a young audience. The camera work is not subjective, its annoying. They want to do it in that style, fine, but have a Stead-i-Cam. Its not scary, is my biggest problem. We need a film like the Exorcist. As put in Entertainment Weekly "A cat jumping from offscreen is scary, the Exorcist is so disturbing it will mess you up for months." Rent that and then you will get it, or even Texas Chainsaw Massacre, it'll stick with you for a while. Currently, I would say Stigmata looks promising.
Final Grade: DETENTION C-
