Not Bad.

Rating: 7/10 (15 September 2012)

I think the film is okay because it is more of a comedy instead of a horror film but I wouldn't really say it was in the top five horror films I have ever seen. It shows blood from the set up because the credits were in red and the music to represent the suspense and build up tension. It was good in the way that it was five regular city kids who were mocking the country life, but they did not know that they were in out of their depth. It was how they were isolated in the woods you knew something was wrong and it was good how the audience can see them being watched but the characters don't know what is happening. The creaking doors created suspense and the use of mirrors is typical of a horror film because it often reflects something. In this case, the two-way mirrors reflect they are unknowingly being watched because in a two-way mirror, only one person can see the other and Josh Whedon, the director, has done this quite well to symbolise the foreshadowing of what's to come. So overall, I think the film was quite good but it wasn't the best because it had too many elements of comedy to be more of a horror film but I think it was well thought out by Josh Whedon.
