embarrassingly bad

Rating: 1/10 (3 November 2012)

I was hoping for an option of -10 for this review. I have completely lost any faith what so ever in the population of the human race, to have seen this mindless insipid drivel and given it a score of 7.3 based- on 102,983 reviews. Perhaps these 102 thousand plus viewers were all drunk, stoned teen-agers? I can only hope so. The scariest part of this movie was the high rating it received, given it's banal, hackneyed script, which was nothing short of embarrassing. The second scariest thing was that I actually sat through it, staring in fascination at the stupidity of it, without turning it off, thinking it impossible that it could get any worse than it already was half way through. But...it did. That the cast should include people like Sigourney Weaver, Chris Hemsworth,and Richard Jenkins, all of whom have starred in some really great productions, brings me to tears. What possessed them to sink so low??? I haven't watched a "horror" movie in a long time. Now I remember why.
