Didn't live up to the hype!

Rating: 5/10 (24 August 2015)

Maybe I'm just getting old and have seen too many horror movies through my lifetime, but this one failed to impress me.
It was very formulaic - tension in the right places, and times that made you jump, but that doesn't make a good horror story. I am a fan of this genre but feel this one offers nothing new. Even the acting performances weren't particularly notable.
I am quite capable of suspending belief for the sake of a good horror movie, but saying that, some of the reactions to certain situations just didn't add up for me. There were too many flaws - style over substance. It might have more appeal to younger people who haven't seen a huge selection of the horror genre yet. I really would like to be more complimentary - sorry!
