I am deeply disturbed that people actually would give this movie such a high rating.. 7.6 is something that classic masterpiece horror films get on IMDB. This movie doesn't come close. As a fan of horror, I am greatly offended and bothered by this rating.
shareMy problem with the criticism towards the film is that people can't accept schlocky genre films anymore, as well done as they can be.
The movie is not supposed to be logical. It's supposed to be a 'rape and revenge' inspired thriller.
Is Last House on the Left logical? Still an effective movie
I agree, modern audiences are too obsessed with "logic". They don't realize that films (and art in general) aren't meant to be rooted in logic. What you see on screen is not "literal". A lot of horror films should be viewed more as bad dreams or nightmares, not actual things that could be happening.
Don't Breathe has been working out pretty well out. It starts off with minimal gore or blood, lots of tension, very nicely filmed, before transforming into high octane shlock for the final reel. And despite that, it's making a killing at the box office, also playing well with critics and most audiences. I hope the studios take note and give us some more, truly hard R horror films.

The fact that you care so much about an imdb rating is what's a joke.
shareShut up, you gave 300 10 stars.
shareAhhh, the classic I degree with your opinion so I look at your movie history and straw man that comment.
shareIt's not a strawman (if anything it's an ad hominem). Your opinion on what a bad movie is only as valid as your opinion on what is a good movie. So if you're going to make a thread that's nothing but complaining about a movie's star rating (not even giving any points, just stating that he doesn't like the rating), you better not have a history of junk ratings. If you wanna give 10 stars to 300, and 9 stars to Underworld, that's fine. Just shut your mouth about literally any other movie's rating.
shareLol this person gave Mean Girls a 10 too!
shareAnd what's wrong with that? Mean Girls is pretty close to a 10, it's at least 9 territory.
shareI haven't rated Mean Girls, but I would probably give it like a 7, maybe an 8. I actually think it's really fun and pretty clever. I really don't have a problem with what anyone rates anything, but when you start a thread that's just to complain about a movie's rating, I think it's fair to call into question what you've rated before. So when you tell me that Don't Breathe is bad, and give 1 star to the Force Awakens, then give top stars to crap like 300 or Jurassic World or Underworld. Maybe you just have terrible taste.
shareLol
shareI gave it a solid 8.0 so...
shareWow I agree 100%!! Cannot understand how any horror movie fan can enjoy this pedestrian pap and everyone else should rate it low for the huge amount of nonsensical plot holes.. embarrassing
shareIt was suspenseful and entertaining, but it was as forgettable as they come. I gave it a 7, because I felt it was better than 6.
shareTotally agree mate. BTW, your username is epic!
