OK. I LOVE, love, love scary movies and 99% of the time I am fine with them...good or bad I don't get disturbed by watching them. But I definitely feel disturbed after watching this one last night...I don't know why but I still have eeby-jeebies. I totally loved the special effects and gory scenes...that stuff makes me jump but never "scares" me, so I think it has something to do with the those poor girls at the beginning, the cheerleaders being abducted and tortured that has me still spooked. I really can't handle reality stuff in horror movies...does anyone know what I mean? Of course you want reality but I don't like thinking that something like that could really happen...do I make any sense? I am used to the car full of kids going to a strange house and meeting freaks--that is simply horror--but the girls being tortured just made me uncomfortable. I know I sound like a nut but for some reason I just couldn't stomach it. The other kids being tortured didn't bother me...that was expected. The cops being shot...no problem. But those stupid cheerleaders. Sheesh. I must be losing it!
I loved the daughter! She was hilarious! (Has anyone seen Dot on MAD TV? I will never think of her in the same way!) Finally a beautiful actress that can actually act well in a scary movie...not just "bounce" around like a moron, although I am sure there was enough bouncing for you guys;) Gotta love those pants! LOL
I loved the set...cool house, awesome tunnels, neat little roadside attraction. And the make-up was great...at least to my untrained eye. I was interested in the characters and can't wait to see the next one...AS LONG AS THERE ARE NO FREAKING CHEERLEADERS IN IT!! (I still can't understand why I feel so strongly about that?!)
I liked this movie for the effects, a workable storyline, and some incredible characters...but it isn't for anyone with a weak stomach...or my boyfriend who somehow sat through the whole thing and was figgetty the whole time--he said it seemed like they made the story up as they went. He hates horror and he was just bored. I was interested till the end because I just had to see what was going to happen next.:confused:
