Average, unrealistic and typical modern horror

Rating: 4/10 (7 November 2005)

Having sat through this film I was extremely disheartened by the general premise that the film is based on. The beginning of the movie was the highlight and from then on things went from semi-realistic to absurd.
It seems that the writers imagination, which was somewhat disjointed, went from one idea to another with no link up, or no lead in. I understand that to be able to enjoy a horror that you need to somewhat suspend disbelief, but this movie takes that too far. The characters lack personalities and depth. They are portrayed in a rather two dimensional way which goes from one side to a complete opposite for no particular reason. You feel nothing for them and in the end aren't particularly worried what happens to any of them.
Having watched various horrors throughout the eighties to present day I have to say that this is typically average for this decade, so far. It is on a par with modern day 'so called' horrors, but don't expect something different or original.
