Really? THIS is the big new Cult Comedy?


Okay, I just watched the film on NetFlix Instant Play, and yea, the film completely stank. And yet for some reason, everybody and their dog loves this. It's a good idea on paper, I guess, and there were attempts at humor in this thing. The big issue is this: whoever made this movie doesn't know about how to execute jokes. Every single punch line and joke in this movie is one that you can see coming a mile away! Take the scene with the police officer in the house. At the beginning of the movie, they show how a support beam is faulty and could fall on them with its many nails. You guys cannot honestly be telling me that as soon as the cop starts walking towards the support beam, that he's going to put his hand on the darn thing and get impaled. Or the thing with the wood chipper, and you see Tucker moving back and forth throwing wood into the thing. How could you not see coming that the kid who's about to run at him is going to miss the timing and land right into the thing! Sorry to rain on your parades, but this is not good comedy, at least not in my opinion.

I though this could be like "Cabin in the Woods" but no... the movie is lame as *beep*
