This movie can't decide what it whats to be.

Rating: 5/10 (9 February 2014)

I watched this movie with a vague understanding of what it was already about. Unlike everyone else who either LOVED IT or HATED IT, I thought it was "EH." I can't say that I loved or hated it because the movie couldn't decide what it wanted to be.
It started out as a natural horror, in Hostel fashion. A tech crew was orchestrating factors to bring 5 young adults into what appeared to be a test enclosure, without the subjects knowing it and intent to kill them. This style was drawing me in and playing out well until real zombies came into play. Still not too far fetched for Resident Evil, but it hadn't shifted through all of its gears. Two of the subjects survive and discover someone had been orchestrating events and they break into the behind the scenes area.
Next gear was pure supernatural horror, in Buffy the Vampire Slayer style. All outlandish walks of creatures were being imprisoned by the tech crew. (Lots of obvious similarities to past horror franchises.) The storyline took a quick turn into an end of the world scenario with a need to appease gods with sacrifices in some sort of formulaic sequence.
The end was a let down for being such a humongous stretch from the beginning. I would have liked the movie more if it could have figured out what it wanted to be from the beginning and following that throughout. For instance, I like ice cream, but I have to be in the mood for it. Otherwise, I don't care for it.
People who want Natural Horror will like the first third of the movie. People wanting a zombie movie will like the middle. And Supernatural Horror lovers will like the ending. I find it hard to believe that anyone LOVES the entire movie. People like me will see the mishmash of the three types, the mismatch between, and just think "Eh, it's OK.- I guess."
