On the nature of movie advertisements

Rating: 2/10 (2 August 2004)

This film was advertised as a horror film. It was not scary, terrifying, creepy, or anything else. It was horrible though. Hmmm... It just seems to me that the way this movie was advertised was not at all in keeping with the content of the film. They shouldn't have made it seem like a scary movie (monsters in the forest) when that's not what it was about. Don't want to spoil the movie for anyone else by giving away the twist. Either way, I think you could call this false advertisement. The movie was billed as being scary, it wasn't scary. It wasn't even a psychological thriller, it was just a movie that was supposed to have a twist.
