best recent horror movie

Rating: 8/10 (30 December 2006)

If you want a good scare and not another Japanese remake look no further. Neil Marshall is one heck of a young writer / director and he doesn't make it easy on you with this film. He brings the thrills, gore, and the best scare of recent times. He has a nice set-up so you get to know the ladies and start to get to know them- this is key to a decent horror movie. If you don't care about the characters than the horror movie will most likely fail which is what most writers / directors of recent times forget. Neil, you should also check out "Dog Soilders" by him, gets you into the characters just enough than whacks you over the head with the bad bad things that happen to the ladies. Take a bit of time, turn out the lights, fire up the DVD, and enjoy the descent (cheesy line but had to be done!). ***THIS IS THE REVIEW FOR UNRATED DVD = recommend that because you will see the proper ending!
