Your feelings on Dead Silence
New here, i used to the search and saw that the last thread with dead silence was over a year ago, so i figured it'd be ok to start a new one.
How does everyone feel towards dead silence? It seems to me from the reviews and comments ive seen online is that people either love it or hate it. Im with the former. Im a huge fan of anything related to horror. Mainly italian and classic slasher flicks, but i don't care at all for the torture porn and j-horror films that flood theaters these days. Dead Silence though is the only movie (besides IT) to truly scare the crap outta me. Sure i was scared alot as a child but im 24 now and i rarely get that feeling anymore. That's why dead silence holds a special place in my dvd collection cause everytime i watch it and i see the cellar scene i get goosebumps and a feeling of panic, It's awesome, ha. I feel like the film gets a bad rep because it's so different from SAW and people always label it as a movie with killer dolls. This is not puppetmaster. Mary Shaw is easily the creepiest villain of recent memory. To me, shes absolutely terrifying. Also, it has an excellent soundtrack and i love the color palette in the film, lots of blues and it has a grainy look. Really great, i wish it would come out on bluray.
Hopefully some people reply cause i'm really curious as to why some people hate this movie, i realize the story isn't groundbreaking, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be. Everyone i've shown this movie to has come out saying how much it scared the crap outta them.
