13: Game of Death (2006)

Huh. A weird little horror film, but not always intentionally so.

The good: Thought it was well-directed for the most part. Also liked that it had a dark little twisted sense of humor. I appreciate it when over-the-top horror movies have a sense of humor (especially when the premise is a little ridiculous like, say, participating in a secret game show that requires you to do increasingly weird and insane tasks while simultaneously being hunted down by the police)

The bad: The end was pretty awful. Like Shyamalan faux twist awful. But even beyond that, I'm pretty sure that there was a LOT left on the editing floor which left the movie seem a bit disjointed, especially near that ill-conceived end.

Would I recommend it? To be honest, I'm not sure; I felt so incredibly dissatisfied by its end that I can't say that I would... But it's certainly not the WORST movie that I've ever seen...

Anyone seen this one?
