5.3...? Is it that bad?


I'm not trying to challenge anyone here, just wondering as someone who has not yet seen the film, i'm just wondering if ppl liked this movie?

I watch alot of horror films and have seen some really gory/disturbing movies but just from watching the trailer it seems a little cheesy?

Also, given the low score I'm debating even seeing it, was it a good movie in your opinions?

Just wondering what your thoughts are- thanks n advance :)

Do guys like "the thing"?
They like it better than no thing.

Rob Zombie is one of the greatest movie directors today

That's exactly what makes it that bad.

I'm happiest...in the saddle.

To inject a little reality here, on a scale of 1 - 10, 5 is average. 5.3 means that it's not Oscar material, but it is entertaining, and meets expectations.

I think it is underrated and deserves a much better rating. I gave it an 8/10.

I agree. It was a fun picture about an evil kid, so worth a 7/10. It had a similar vibe to The Good Son, the seemingly innocent little kid that's a homicidal maniac LOL.
