Odd

Rating: 5/10 (26 August 2005)

I found this film quite odd. Horror movies are actually meant to make you scared, nervous, that sort of thing. This just didn't do it for me. Sure, the beginning and conclusion were great to watch, but not scary. The suspense at the beginning was well performed though, however, the movie is too predictable, typical horror film really. It also has a very strange storyline, and very unrealistic. I mean, if you watch a video tape, 7 days later a girl comes out your television and kills you, yeah, like that would ever happen in real life. Other horror films are more realistic, even if they're not scary (eg Scream, not so scary but you could be brutally murdered by a serial killer, can't you?) I give this a 5 out of 10, nice to watch, but not scary enough.
