Dead Silence - (Unrated DVD)
 
5/10
Not bad. It was a lot better than I expected. Good ghost story flix.
The dummies were pretty freaky. Definitely worth a rent. :cool:

Hey I had forgotten about this one.
I was actually kind of looking forward to it at one time, despite myself, I figured it was going to be pretty terrible. ;) I'm not even a Saw fan.
Maybe we will pick it up this weekend. Couldn't be any worse than some of the crap we have been renting lately.....:D

This movie let me down. It looked pretty good, but what really sold me was the promise of a SAW-like twist ending. Endings make a movie for me, so I was rather excited - I am also a big fan of twists.

The ending here, and the "twist", is just plain terrible. It's as if it was tacked on last minute. It had no build-up, it lasted a mere ten seconds, and the shock value was about zero. I didn't see it coming, no, but it was delivered in such a way that one would shrug their shoulders and say "So what?"

It was just added on to SAY there was a twist and really didn't connect with the rest of the story at all. DISAPPOINTING.

You can do better, James.

Am I the only one who thought this movie was freakin scary???

If i had been a kid i would've had nightmares for weeks. Maybe even months. I thought it was an almost perfect horror movie.

And i even spotted that "twist ending" at the beginning of the movie. Yes i'm that good. :rolleyes:

That movie pissed me off, I was expecting puppets to get up and move around by themselves, but it's just the Toothfairy from Darkness Falls with a fresh suit of skin.

to be honest, this movie let me down. i thought since it was made by the producers of SAW that it would be a great movie, and that it would be oneo f those movies that would stand out more from the mainstream like the SAW trilogy did. it just seemed like another child's play meets puppet master type of deal. but that's just my opinion.

...and my opinion is...it was just fine. Though the story was quite simple and traditional, but it got some it's own scary moments and I enjoyed it.
Hope to see a good sequel in future.
