I always kinda wondered if some reviewers were just being sarcastic.

If I recall correctly, Fear of the Dark has a snippet from an IMDB review on it's DVD.

How sad is THAT? Really says a lot about the quality of the movie, thats for sure...

I go by how far they have to go to find a good review. If they have a positive review only at Bloody Disgusting for example, or the Punxsutawney Spirit or Incest Today it means you probably don't have much support and they're fishing. I've seen HDC reviews used for review fishing twice. Boogeyman and Cursed. I was actually leery about trying to find interview subjects and talk horror on HDC because of the forum's alleged fondness for Boogeyman. It's a shame reviews of ours can't be used to back movies that don't blow.

Wow that is strange to say it is "the best of the lot" I would think the first SAW was the best maybe saw 4 was the best of the sequels was what they meant.

Agreed. That did over sell it a bit.
