This movie deserves A LOT MORE THAN 6.2!!!


I don't have to much to say because I'm doing other stuff at the moment but I just couldn't believe the movie have only 6.2 of rating... I mean seriously?!

And from what I have read most of the bad critics was because of the ending.

Well you know what I think?

I think the movie had one of the best cheesy *evil dead like* endings ever.

Is a great movie, great acting I got scared a few times and the subject of the movie was very deep and somehow real.

I would have given the movie at least an 8 but 6.2 is ridiculous.

I gave it a 9. It is the only Wes Craven film I like (other than the original Nightmare and 'New Nightmare'). I, too, cant believe it has such a low rating. I would expect somewhere between 6.8-7.1. Now, I havent seen it in forever, but it stuck with me and Ive actually been thinking about it a lot lately and want to see it again. And Bill Pullman is just awesome in anything he's in....

agreed!

A 6.2 rating for a horror movie on imdb isn't really low. You won't really find many horror movies on this site, other than most "iconic" movies, that have scores higher than 7.

It's at 6.3 now, not too bad, but a 6.6-6.8 would be about right.
