Why did they hype it so much?


And it didn't even deliever... The coolest thing about this movie was that they kept it a secret and had it as "The Woods" in the beginning.

because, thats how they get us to pay attention. I didnt like it either

They always do things like that. Like when the poster for the Evil Dead remake said "The Most Terrifying Film You'll Ever Experience." I figure it draws in more viewers than saying "This film is pretty average, but we still hope you'll pay to see it anyways." That would be the truth of it a lot of the time, though.

The tagline wasn't that different from the original's "The Ultimate Experience In Grueling Terror."

I mean, seriously, how do you people want the movies to be advertised?
