i’m a huge fan of horror movies, admittedly not of overly gory ones, so this might affect my opinion. none of the characters really had any building and were one-dimensional, i felt like they were just there to die, and the ending didn’t make sense to me (spoilers) as to why the main character didn’t drive away by herself, did she just not want another ruined soul? (end of spoilers)
the characters didn’t have enough depth to them, just lived to die, there wasn’t any satisfying “relief” for the survivors in the end, or it didn’t feel enough, with all that’s going on. i feel like loose ties or random details never tied in near the end, like what happened to the engagement ring? the girl didn’t even find out what happened to her boyfriend (except for the assumption that he died after seeing the killer), didn’t even care about him afterwards? could be argued that the adrenaline made her forget about him; but it doesn’t make much sense to me, seeing how devastated she was over morgan and especially andy. some characters were just insufferable, and most didn’t even “get what they deserved”.
i feel like this wasn’t scary or horror, just made me feel icky with the overly gory contents. i didn’t really get scared since the “plot” was quite predictable; feels like a sadist made the movie just to let out their inner desires for gore and torture. wouldn’t watch again, wish i didn’t watch at all, but then again, maybe this is just because this movie isn’t to my liking.
