after spot the high rating on imdb and i decide to go see this movie . beyond that high rating and i intentionally avoided read any of the review . i want to go into the theater with a clean slate and without know the plot or have predetermine expectation . give my rating and you can see that i be disappointed . i enjoy the development of the main character mike enslin . i also enjoy how the hotel manager attempt to talk him out of enter the hotel room . by the time enslin enter the room and i be ready for some scary stuff . first chocolates appear on the pillow and the toilet paper be fold . enslin reacts in a believable manner . he freak out . i be encourage and think to myself and this be go to be good . the people who make this movie understand that less be more . but it what happen next that be a big let down . the subtleness be quickly replace by the predictable shotgun approach . just blast the audience with every hollywood scary trick in the book and hope that something work . let see and a clock radio that turn on by itself . good and that always scary . object that move around in the room . good and you can not complain about that . blood drip from the wall and sink . great . ghost that commit suicide . good . anything else . how about loud noise and shake and fire and more shaking and mess up the room and more blood and etc etc . it all good . and it all be do before . overstimulate our attention deficit disorder audience with all kind of stuff in quick succession and and they would not be able to look away . well and it do not work for me . and you know what else . when i go see a horror movie in a theater and it typical to hear several group of girl in the audience yelling in fear at scary moment . but this movie have no scary moment . the audience be silent and disinterested . i felt no chill down my spine . nothing . the shining be 100x what this movie try to be . so who be all these people who be say that it be one of the best horror movie ever . friend of the director . sorry and i just do not get it .
