Reviews

I loved the original strangers but this is one of the worst movies I've ever seen hands down. None of the suspense of the original. Laughably bad dialog and acting along with dumb characters that do stupid things constantly. They must have paid Hendricks well to be in this snoozefest lol...

I don't understand all the bad reviews so I decided to write one which i rarely do but this film deserves one. I think if you are looking for just a fun ghost story with creepy CG, good sound and some jumpy points, turn down the lights and rent this one.

My wife and I loved it and we love paranormal, psych-thriller and the horror genre. If you are going to be picky and look for product placement and if it rips off other movies, then you are an idiot and shouldn't watch anything.

This movie isn't for everyone but I almost didn't watch it because of all these review so i'm glad i ignored them all and gave it a shot.

If you liked The Tree of Life, you'll prob like this. I didn't and i DEFINITELY didn't like this. It tried to be Moon, 2001, and Tree Of Life and failed at 2 of them but was a carbon copy of The Tree Of Life = BORING!!!!

Absolutely nothing happens in the movie at all except some walking around, some talking to himself, tons of imagery and effects to disguise the fact that nothing at all happens. The director kinda tricks you into thinking somethings happening with the score and the crazy effects but its just sounds and angles.

My wife and I found ourselves annoyed extremely bored and we only watched to the end because I THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS GOING TO HAPPEN!!!! GOD!!!! Hopefully i can save one of you viewers from thinking that something is going to happen eventually like i did, and you can just read this review and don't bother. IF you want a good recent sci-fi, skip this crap and watch Moon :)

wow! besides boring the crap out of me, i don't see anything incredible, beautiful, moving, compelling, riveting or genius about this. its compelling that they managed to get someone to produce it, but thats about it. i liked suburbia, loved Darko, like lynch, hate Hollywood, and like stuff like this normally but I HATED EVERY SECOND OF THIS FILM LIKE NO OTHER!!! somebody making a review saying important stuff like "this movie is NOT for everyone" would have been good. sure than can make any movie they want, but i don't have to like it.

here are some words i would use to describe Gummo: boring, useless, horrible, childish, pointless, unpleasant, abhorrent, abominable, appalling, awful, detestable, dreadful, hideous, horrendous, horrid, loathsome, lousy, offensive, repulsive, revolting, shameful, and lets finish off with good Ole terrible.

so if you love trailer parks and white trash garbage drowning cats for fun with random stories of mullet incest, run to the blockbuster!!! thats what this movie was for me and NOTHING MORE!!! run run run!

seriously, id rather vacuum my apt than watch this movie again. if you are over 13, avoid at all costs. i kept thinking to myself, like whats the point of all this? the movie house has to meet a quota or something? i cant believe I'm saying this but Disturbia was better-not by much, but better. at least that one was funny, prob not supposed to be but kept me laughing. this movie just made me sad. well, the char development was kinda invisible, uh does that count for something? someone that submitted a comment hit the nail on the head and said that this is a after school special. a bad one at that. worst movie i saw in a while.

If you like vegetable oil sprayed on rubber combined with horrible acting which spawned from a horrendous script made for 8yo's, you'll love this. And sometimes they didn't even bother to use the vegetable oil!!! Did he send out the screeners only to pre-adolescents? I only rented this because Paul did it and I loved Resident Evil when I saw it in the theater. Most of his other movies are crap also but RE1 was awesome I thought. This movie ruined 2 of my favorite scare- fest movies from my childhood. Im sure I'm not alone there. He doesn't care anymore and figured, Im rich now and who cares about this? It will fill seats whatever crap i put out so who cares? The second one is much better and directed by a pair of brothers who as far as i can see, only directed AVP2 and nickelback videos, but ill forgive them for that. this one is loosely & generously classified as a sci-fi and AVP2 is much more a horror film. Its much creepier and scarier, like it should be.

This movie tried to be Hero but failed miserably. Prob had 1 tenth the budget of a movie like Hero and didn't do much with it I thought. Fight scenes were boring and seemed rushed and thrown together. I shut it off after i started to get upset at it. I don't think i can watch movies like this after seeing masterpieces like Hero, House of Flying Daggers, Crouching Tiger and of course Curse of the Golden Flower. If you have seen any of those movies, don't bother with this, there's no point... Actually, this movie couldn't even wipe The Banquets butt. If I melt the DVD down maybe i can make something interesting out of it and give it a better purpose.

I can't give it a zero? No, aw bummer... I gave this a shot because it is a remake of Body Snatchers which is John Carpenter at his finest so I had high hopes. This movie totally ruined my memories of the original which actually gave me nightmares for a few days when i was a kid. This is such a piece of Nicole Kidman garbage! The best (or worst) part of this crap-fest is they changed the way the aliens clone the humans. In the original they come in the form of a pod like thing that sits next to the victim and clone them while they sleep-totally creepy! In this 'sorry excuse for a remake', the aliens puke yellow crap on the victims in almost a comical way. My wife and I were laughing it was so dumb and corny. Don't worry, that isn't a spoiler either because it happens 20 minutes into the movie and doesn't spoil anything. Wow, what complete crappola!!! Story sucked, character development sucked, acting sucked, etc. I should have watched in fast forward, I prob wouldn't have missed a thing. OK I think thats enough...

Someone get this A**clown out of Hollywood please, there's enough idiots in there already.

98 percent of dialog is some midwest trailer trash dialect. People who will like this movie wear harley shirts and probably watch dumbass or jackass or whatever that crap is.

Character development? Ahh, its overrated & who needs it anyway...

My question is who the f**k gave him permission to wreck my fav horror movie? Id like to...god don't get me started but it would be painful.

Im out cause i don't want to waste another second of my life on this crap...
