Parts that might have been scary or creepy are just played for laughs, as seems to be the case with most mainstream horror post-Scream. In fact, I think the Scream/Shaun of the Dead crowd will love this movie, but am surprised by the reception it's gotten by real horror fans. Maybe I need to rewatch...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-60642832081425908172009-10-23T17:27:06.253-07:002009-10-23T17:27:06.253-07:00I've heard rumor (from a friend who knows Doug...I've heard rumor (from a friend who knows Dougherty personally) that WB refused to release it because so many children are killded in it, including mentally handicapped children.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-24666308371679561322009-10-14T17:56:59.188-07:002009-10-14T17:56:59.188-07:00this movie is destined to be one of those horror f...this movie is destined to be one of those horror flicks you watch every halloween. it's not really all that scary, but it's quite nicely done. i love that the fat kid from "bad santa" is in it.darkkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07324670662569423275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-60024288648024011902009-10-14T01:07:02.550-07:002009-10-14T01:07:02.550-07:00I resisted the urge to read the review until I saw...I resisted the urge to read the review until I saw the movie, I still trying to figure out WTF was in the minds of put this gem on the dark (no pun intended) just to make way for the crappy teenized remakes that flooded the 08-09 run, DAMN this movie ROcked!Zedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072751418202883840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-91859983997409905772009-10-10T11:36:24.445-07:002009-10-10T11:36:24.445-07:00Finally!

It is seriously if not the best horror movie I've seen, certainly up there in the top tier. This thing has everything I want to see in a modern horror movie: great cast, great writing, inventive effects and cinematography, and genuinely inventive twists on old horror tropes. And, yeah, great dark humor.<br /><br />How the hell did W.B. bungle this one? I hope this goes on to the great cult audience it deserves.C.
