Post modern nightmare...and its not even funny.

Rating: 1/10 (29 April 2012)

How this film has managed to garner an aggregate score of 8.0 reflects more on the current state of films and their audiences than it does the state of the actual film. Where to start with what is wrong with this film? I could say "everything", but that would be too easy. This movie is what happens when somebody has the crazy idea that you can cross the Evil Dead with the Truman Show, which was not that bad of an idea in itself, BUT that same person/persons decided that maybe they could spice it up if they added a Lovecraftian twist to it, and what we end up with is an utter mish mash of nonsense that becomes almost unwatchable in its final thirty minutes or so. Once you see the the real horrors in all their CGI glory (and its BAD CGI) then you lose all hope that this film was ever going to be any good...its just junk.
To put this into context with regards to this sites scoring system, The Exorcist, arguably one of the finest horror films ever made gets a score of 8.1, only 0.1 better than this utter rubbish! The Truman Show gets 8.0 and The Evil Dead gets 7.6...a true score for this movie would be the result of deducting the result of the latter from the former.
Cabin In The Woods 0.4
