i really do not get why people dislike this film . it wasn not the high gore or boo kind of film with silly teenager have sex and be slice to death . it remind me more of j horror the creepy and unsettling scene that make your hair stand on end . no and the movie be somewhat predictable but the fun be get there . there be a lot of really spooky scene that make my tense and and the sound be fantastic . the acting be uniformly of high standard except and oddly enough bruce campbell who i think be miscast . the only real complaint i have about the film be the force levity ( do not work for me ) which thankfully be very short and and the end be way too happy or neatly wrap up for my taste . i think it would have be more effective to end on a picnic at hang rock note where you weren not sure what happen to the girl . but for those who have patience and can appreciate mood over gore and this be a very well do film and deserve to be see .
