    Lussier stages his movie not so much around nail-biting moments as novel ways to fling entrails at his viewers. But if you take pleasure in such mindless gore, there must be worse ways to spend 100 minutes.

    There's no excitement or terror in watching the 3-D execution of 2-D actors giving 1-D performances, just the steadily diminishing returns of the same eye gouge delivered ad infinitum.

  1. A horror movie that actually makes use of 3D, That's a shocker. A few suspensful moments and solid kills definently make it worth checking out but the poor acting by the cast and predictable ending (you pretty much know who the killer is half way into the movie) put a damper on things. I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel. Full Review »
  2. It is the perfect movie for the couple, but if you do not see with your girlfriend / boyfriend has bored you go.

    Average remake of the excellent 1981 original slasher film. The kills are creative, and the change in the identity of the killer is a great addition. Otherwise, exploitation alley. The 3-D effects are stunning! Full Review »
