oh and where the hell should i begin . give a brief summary of the story . no . either you have already hear it and or do not want to . either way and it suck . much like the movie . i happen to be a semi large horror movie aficionado and and i must say this be one of the dumb and most clumsily execute movie i have ever have the displeasure of view . the script be horrendously stupid . the story start too fast with absolutely no suspense or build up in the slight . all of those torture scene would have be a lot more effective if we give even the tiny bit of crap for the character . since the first scene in the film be when the teenage girl meet capt . howdy and how the hell be we suppose to sympathize with them . first off and they seem stupid for go to a party with a guy they do not even know and and second and we do not even know their damn name . why the hell should i care if they live or die . not to mention the fact that they actually have the gut to try and make u feel sympathetic towards capt . howdy after he be reform . please . i be cheer when he get his just desert . he deserve them . hell and he deserve bad . also and be force to sit through a pointless misdirect sequence lift directly from the silence of the lamb ( and here it do horribly . of course he gon na give them a false address . and even if he have give them the real one and do not you think he would be wait and not pierce some guy johnson upstairs . retard . ) then there the dialogue . everything captain howdy say be either laughable or just plain stupid . the dead be so dreadfully dead and when theyre dead . what the hell kind of crap be that . dee snider at one point say knowledge be power . well and if that true and this film have absolutely no power whatsoever . then and there the plot hole . yes and i know this be a horror film ( well and wannabe horror film ) and but damn . you could drive a semi truck into these hole . first off and these have get to be the dumb cop i have ever see . ever . i mean and dear god and these guy be moron . call for backup and idiot . second and how the hell do that humungous septum ring fall out of captain howdy nose . evidentially this piercing expert guy say that the big one i have ever see and but if it so damn big and how the hell could it have fall out so easily . do capt . howdy just leave it at the crime scene because he want to get catch . they sure do not make it seem like he do . also and they would never release capt . howdy and and i know that for a damn fact . he would be in jail for the rest of his life and and there no get around this . much less let him return to his old house where he kill or torture everybody . impossible and implausible . and now the acting . dear god do these people suck . linda cardellini be the only thing good in this film . she poise and amazing . too bad she hardly get a good chance to act in this piece of crap . amy smart show up for about 10 minute and then drop out of existence . even the usually entertaining robert englund be underused and ineffective here . dee snider play the crazy guy with no talent whatsoever . i never felt threaten and scar or intimidate . i would rather have see dee snider in alexis arquette role in bride of chucky . it would have be so much more fun to see this talent less hack get it by that lovable psycho doll . dee snider just plain suck . he can not act ( one of the least scary villain i have ever see ) and he can not write ( do he write this damn movie in his sleep . ) and and he obviously dumber than freak jessica simpson . this film be just a way for dee snider to show off all the weird crap he know about self mutilation and modern primitive and blah blah blah . either it be do before or it just do not need to be do . i be bore throughout the whole damn thing . the act suck and the music suck and the script suck and the pacing suck and the special fx suck and the directing suck . basically and this movie suck . this film try to be a serious and sophisticated thriller or horror flick and it fail miserably . it doesn not manage to scare and shock and or disturb in any shape and way or form . this be probably one of the least effective and utterly unoriginal film i have ever see in my entire life . a piece of cinematic garbage capture on celluloid . strangeland get a negative . avoid at any and all cost . not enjoyable in the slightest .
