I haven't seen this movie, so I can't really say anything about it. However, it looks like it suffers from something a lot of movies made after 2003 suffer from, which is not having any Bronson in it.  |

I like it a lot, it did Silent Hill the movie better than Silent Hill. One note, if you plan on watching it, watch the uncensored release, as the censored release is missing a very important plot point, which ruined the movie for a lot of people.

This movie is pretty shit. I was tempted to give it 1 star, but I'm saving that score for when a really, REALLY bad movie gets suggested. I remember wanting to see this movie as a kid since it was based around a video game. Even as a middle school-er I thought it was disappointing. Would not recommend this for any audience. If you want a shitty movie there's better alternatives, if you want a good movie there's plenty better ones. This one is unlucky and falls underwhelmingly in neither of those categories of being so bad it's good and actually good. 2/5

Maybe someone can answer this for me before I sink any time into this, but for horror movies I have certain requirements I need met before I commit to it.
Is there any nudity? Since this isn't an Evil Dead movie starring Campbell, therefor not qualifying for Cobretti's Evil Dead Jugs Exemption, The movie MUST have an exposed set bodacious breasts before I even consider it.
Is there any hijinks? Hijinks are important to horror movies. Most of the titans of horror movies has hijinks. Ghoulies has hijinks. CHUD 2: Bud The Chud has Hijinks. The Freddy movies were loaded with hijinks. Even Re-Animator was able to sneak in some hijinks.
Is it sleazy? Check this clip from the sleaze classic Street Trash for the kind of complete sleaze I'm talking about.
Those are my horror movie requirements. If it meets any of those, I'll check it out.
