Hype, hype, hype... bad, bad, bad

Rating: 1/10 (11 August 1999)

Whew, what a stinker. This wasn't scary, creepy, or intriguing, the characters were irritating and moronic and generate no viewer sympathy towards them, and the story and its conclusion left those of us who haven't seen the website (which gives MUCH NEEDED background) scratching our heads in confusion.
If you're expecting a really classic, scary horror film, you're going to be really disappointed. And as exit polls are indicating, a lot of us are really disappointed (60 percent of the 600 polled who said they "couldn't wait to see movie," ended up giving the film a C, and those who were just accompanying their friends, and who, presumably, had no strong interest in the film, gave it an F). That pretty much sums it up.
