Two words......LAME ASS. Possibly the worse film of 2005-06. Now I understand why BuenaVista didn't have any one sheets and or trailers available for the past 4 weeks. The one sheet is by far more interesting than the film. I will never be able to reclaim those 85 minutes of my life. [thumbsdown]

Don's post just doesn't do this movie justice. Perhaps LAME ASS ASS ASS ASS ASS would've been more accurate.

Here we have a writer/director-extraordinaire (at least in his own mind) who saw Final Destination and decided "hey, I'm going to make a horror movie just like that one, but different and sucky". Indeed he has succeeded.

People play this retarded video game that isn't scary at all (but all of the characters pretend to be really spooked by it), and then they die in the manner of how they died in the game. Sound an awful lot like Final Destination??? Well the problem here is that in Final Destination people died in cool ways and it didn't have amateur acting, horrible direction and quite possibly the worst dialogue ever written for the screen. Even just by reading the script alone I can't figure out how this ever got greenlighted! There MUST have been some sexual favors to a Buena Vista executive going on.

So without wasting more of my life thinking about this film, let me close by saying out of every movie I have seen in the last 12 months...this is the worst one!
