I don't get it

Rating: 3/10 (10 November 2002)

This is easily the most over-hyped piece of cinema I have ever seen. I went in expecting to have the holy popcorn scared out of me, like a reviewer said. Did I? Nope. Yes, the tape was kind of creepy, and the noise that played during the tape, but pretty much everything else about it sucked. The acting was good, though, and so was the plot. However, they don't explain a damn thing. For instance: Who made the tape? Who calls you when you watch the tape? Why hasn't anyone in the movie ever heard of star-six-nine? *SPOLIER, I SUPPOSE* And when Rachel says, "What did I do that he didn't?", she comes to the conclusion that she made a copy. Well, yeah, AND you went down in the well and held the girl's corpse. And anyway, it's impossible to see a ring of light when you push a lid onto a well AFTER you see the half-moon shape. I'm warning you, don't waste your time. 4/10, and I'm feeling generous.
