I bought this movie blind in a buy 2 get one 3 deal so technically I didn't really buy it but i decided to read some reviews and most of them say it's horrible. Is it really that bad? I'm almost afraid to watch it. at least it was free.
Fear is Your Only God.share
Yes, it is.
shareYes,it is. Really bad. Don't bother.

Let's say it's a waste of talent. The movie "appears" to be something worth to watch when it begins and I must confess, it's got a moody atmosphere, but that's all the "good" you'll get. People compare it to "THE RING" and I beg to differ, since I thought "THE RING" (despite being a remake) was MILES and MILES better made and more interesting than this piece of junk.
But if you want to see a movie that makes this one look like THE GODFATHER, rent (if you dare), "THE UNTOLD", with Lance Henriksen. I think I could make a better movie than that one!!!
Stay Punk!
It's worst than bad. There are no words to describe how awful it is. I would have to invent a new word just to describe my hatred for this movie. Don't torture yourself. Throw it in the trash.
shareHow about "megaloathe"?
shareWorse, not worst.
I am a gore watching freak!!!
If it don't have it, it isn't worth the watch.
This is the only movie that when I watched it at the Theatre people, in the end people actually started throwing trash at the screen and demanded a refund!!
No Lie!!! I swear!!!
Of course no one got a refund because they saw the whole movie.
Worst Movie!!!!
Believe me, and for that dumbass that said if you like the ring you'll like this movie.....YOUR A DUMBASS!!!

Yep, seems like English is not a well known language here. Saying worst instead of worse, and 3 instead of free.

If it don't have it, it isn't worth the watch.
I can understand people getting mad but throwing movie popcorn is too expensive...
sharewell we honestly tried to watch it 5 freekin times...every time we tried we fell asleep...it really is that horrible...its a great premise for a movie but this movie just isnt great im sorry...i did finally watch it on the 6th try and i feel as tho i wasted what like 90 minutes or something of my life...will never watch it again however did you happen to watch your "free" crappy movie lol if so what did you think of it :-)
shareMassively bad. No redeeming factors. Even watching it before seeing Ringu I thought it was a poor film, and having seen Ringu since you realise just how bad feardotcom actually is.
Use the CD as a coaster man.
I just watched it over an hour or so...couldn't take it anymore...a boring, ridiculous, godawful flick...better stay away or it might bore you to death
shareI'm going with very badly done,
not inherently bad.
Not disagreeng with anyone, just a different take.
I suppose it really grinds people
because the film makers realllllly
insult their audience from the beginning
and treat us stupidly throughout.
THe core insult is thar we are supposed to accept
this is taking place in New York City????????
Total crap.
I found it impossible to believe it was luxembourg at that!!!
Hell, they couldn't photograph that beautiful city,
much less pass it off as someplace else.
It looked like some dark eastern european mountain town
at it's worst after a war.
So it major league sucks from a production value standpoint,
bad enough to destroy credibility.
They couldn't eeven shoot a sunny day,
much less clean up Michael sarrazin.
It all looked like the dirtiest place on earth.
BUT, at least the actors tried.
They stayed faithful in spite ofthe weak story.
So if you look past that,and can enjoy the grim
manifesto the story presents,
and embrace the horrific misery that the antagonist creates,
and try to solve the mystery, which was weak but interesting,
it's slightly bearable if only in that regard.
It's not better that a sitting for "Hostel" or "Saw"
but not a whole lot worse.
I never bothered with the sequels to either one.
Just my thoughts.
in 15 years this will become a "Freaky Cult Classic" anyway.
It's pretty mediocre but not as bad as White Noise.
