How is this movie ranking a 5.8?

It's not the goddamn Shining or The Thing or The Exorcist, but its really good, you would have to be anti-horror-violence-black humor-intellectual to give this less than a 6.

I was really effected the first time I watched this. I had seen Texas Chainsaw, and several other films that tread this same type of territory. But the use of point of view cameras, the use of the villains explaining their crazed theology, the use of slo-mo when killing a cop/revealing a torture dungeon, the family themselves shrugging off all these horrors while simultaneously perpetuating them!

Its a good movie, I like it more than most so maybe I am just inclined/biased, but it certainly deserves a 8.0+ rating. a 5.8 means people are ranking it consistently at a 1 or 2, which is *beep* idiotic. I guess you people have never seen Manos, any Ed Wood films, Mitchell, any existing films that truly rank at a 1 or a 2. You have no concept of a 1-10 rating scale. The craft and fun while simultaneously disturbing notes at work here are far better than its rating. *beep* you people.
