Is it part of a movie's function to stop the viewer falling asleep?

Unlikely - since so many factors can affect the condition of the brain before viewing.

So a film must work harder (something it cannot do) to catch the attention if you are tired.

Try watching it again, not so late at night - maybe on a weekend.

:cool:

wolf creek
 
what sucked about wolf creek is that it wasnt scary at all. i thought it was pretty boring. stick to the american made movies

I disagree.

The apprehensive mood that developed during the meeting of the victims and their abductor - particularly between the two lead males - was subtle but very sinister (not least down to some terrific cinematography and acting), the terrorising and torture of the two girls were some of the most nasty episodes in horror film history, the unexpected developments during the pursuit scenes were brutal, jarring and went against the grain of typical Hollywood horror so insistent on providing revenge and retribution.

This is not a Freddy movie (although the scene in the car was a real bogeyman moment) - it is raw exploitation, capable of generating terror like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes. It isn't a 'boo! look behind you' picture, the kind which might provide more 'scares' to younger audiences.

Stick to American made movies?

Q: Explain why.

Ah yes, the great American-made movies:

Boogeyman, Darkness Falls, and a thousand remakes.




I thought Wolf Creek's atmosphere made it pretty damn good.

I mean, they spent so much time on the build-up and not enough on the good stuff. I just wanted everyone to die, up to and including everyone responsible for the film's production as well.

Hostel may have had a shit beginning, but at least it delivered more gore and packed more of a punch for your money than Wolf Creek...in my humble opinion, that is.



Hostel had the most tasteless gore I have ever seen. wolf creek was actually pretty good except the girls were stupid I have ever seen. I was soo mad at them I am glaad that one got her spine stabbed. and he put the other one out of her misery.

Hostel just sucked, at least saw had a plot. hostle was just hey look at my boobs and throw in some shocking gore. just for the purpose of shock. NO CLASS.
