A fresh take on the horror genre.

Rating: 7/10 (12 August 2013)

I am not surprised by the negative reviews given by some people as I wouldn't so much class this as a horror film. If you go into this open minded, I feel people would have a different view. Most horror films I have watched recently have just made me laugh, when they weren't supposed to. This film is clearly made on the base that it should be laughed at. They take the mic out of other horror films that just aren't scary.
The main idea of this film is that it has the normal 'scare tactic' horror feel to it, however what the writers are getting at is that this scenario is starting to get very boring. So they add the twist that the whole story is being controlled by other humans. This made it more enjoyable to watch in my opinion as they were basically mocking the stupid decisions made by characters in normal horror films by forcing it upon the main characters in this film, that otherwise were acting rather like any real person would in the situations given.
I felt the film kept a good pace with a few twists along the way, okay so its a bit far-fetched but it's a film, it's not supposed to have real world limitations and i think that a lot of people seem to forget this fact.
Overall i would give this a 7/10 as there were a few aspects that could have been cleaner, but still a very enjoyable, fresh thinking film.
