Well, SodaGirl, as far as I know, it wasn't based on a true story... The whole "based on actual events" thing was meant as satyrical.
Besides that... I did like the movie. Even though I must admit it kinda loses its pace after some time, I think it has some pretty interesting elements. First of all, even if there are some definitely unrealistic things (hell, sometimes we might think the psychos can teleport), the photography, the camera movements and the violent scenes as a whole seem to have been made aiming at a realistic, say, point of view.
Also, I guess I really liked the way the just human killers can be totally cynical and just... Well, plain evil. No psycho babble about how their parents didn't give them enough sugar, no discourse on how they think they were wronged and, well, no speeches like "who needs a reason?". Those people are scary because they simply LOOK evil. One thing is to have Jason chasing you in that slow, expressionless manner. Another is to have supposed normal people doing that for mere fun. OK, I know it's been done before, but... I don't know, the whole thing just looked pretty convincing for me, hehe.
