MillBay's rating
It has been said by other moviegoers, so what more can I say? This movie was very dull, to say the least. If you want to see a scary flick, this one is not for you. If you want to see likable characters, again this is not for you. If you want to toss out some money and waste 90 minutes of your life, go for it. It is best to just stick to the 1980 original. This version did not build up any suspense or leave you rooting for anybody. A very flat movie, indeed, which had very little fog in it. The fact that this was filmed close to my home community does not add any stars to my rating. In fact, I am ashamed to say that my community would have anything to do with this boring garbage.
Yes, I am S.I.C.K. that I spent $2.00 Canadian on this. I watched it one day after "Sanitarium," which makes "S.I.C.K." look like "Casablanca." Anyway, judging by its own merits (or lack of) S.I.C.K. is, more or less, a big waste of time. The acting is brutally bad. The film quality is cheap. It looks like it was done on low-low budget. The actors obviously have never taken acting lessons. The bad acting does get in the way of things far too many times. And the plot is so unoriginal that I won't even go there. This movie has been done many times before, and done much, much better. Avoid this. I am sure there is something better to do. Maybe count the tiles on your kitchen floor or talk to the plants.
Whoa! This movie was bad. I can't believe how the DVD box in my local video store totally contradicted the actual movie itself. However, I won't claim false advertising. I was a sucker and blew about $2.00 Canadian to rent this thing. $2.00 that could have gone towards something far more useful, like bent paper clips or defective elastic bands. DO NOT BE TEMPTED BY THE MOVIE BOX. THIS IS A TERRIBLE FILM. The acting is wooden, the audio is worse. You really do not care what happens to the characters. It has already been mentioned that the idea was good, but it was not done right. I agree. The people who made this film did have a good idea and could have done a lot more with it.
