The gore was out of control

Rating: 4/10 (11 August 2006)

I thought the basic storyline, and backdrop could have been much better served had the director worked on the mystery and suspense aspect rather than the gore. I had a problem right from the start. Being involved in a serious accident, our girl ran from her hospital room after pulling out all the hookups from the machines monitoring her. She continues running until she is sitting in the middle of a corridor in the hospital, in her hospital gown, being consoled by her friend also sitting on the floor, and everyone else was stepping around them. I had assumed she was in serious condition. Am I missing something here? Let me put it this way, when I see a rating of 7.5 for a horror movie (The Descent) on IMDb knowing that Night of the Living Dead received a 7.8, I was expecting more of the "on the edge of your seat", "heart pounding" type suspense. If you like saying Gore! Gore! instead of More! More! than this movie is for you.
