    I realise this has probaly been reviewed...
    But meh.


    PLOT - 1/10
    Plot? WHAT PLOT? The movie had the most predictable terrible plot I have ever had the misfortune to see. Ok sure, it was based on a true story so it's got to stick to what happaned a bit. But it was just random hack n' slash. Majorly failed in this department. Basically the plot is a group of stoner teenagers in a car going down to some concert, suddenly they find a f**** up woman and she says they are going the wrong way and they will die, they keep going towards the person who f**** her up, she shoots herself and senseless violence follows.


    ACTING - 7/10
    Wasn't outstanding, wasnt bad either. Average performances but the fear was portrayed by the actors quite well.. Mehs, most of the actors didnt seem to survive very long anyway.


    VIOLENCE - 10/10
    The whole film was violence. That's all there was in the film. From chainsaws ripping through pillows to people hanging up on hooks, it is what the film is all about. We needed some form of emotional and mental horror not just hack n slash.


    HORROR - 5/10
    Horror? Erm, in TMC?
    Haha no. Senseless violence that failed to remove any warm feeling you may have had before the film. I was bored before the film and bored during it. It was just pointless, they completely failed to get a sense of terror and menace into the film. Brutal repetitive murder, yipee.


    OVERALL - 4/10
    Quite a terrible film. I don't recommend it. No horror value in it at all, the suspense hardly got above a low level and the best bit of the whole film was the end. I suppose it is good if you like mindless crappy violence but if you want to be scared for real then try a different horror film. One that doesn't seem to be made by idiots.

    Maybe it's just me.
    But senseless violence seems kinda pathetic and un-scary.

    You are smocking the dragon, aren't ya? This movie was badass, and thats all there is to say.

    How the hell are you giving it 1/10 in plot.. its based on a true story..And if it was changed any diffrent, it would've gotten a 1/10 for being "stupid"..

    The horror on it is great.. I don't see how you rated it so low.

    Anyways, this is a great film, and IMO.. dont listen to this review. :P

    No hardfeelings Broken.

    Plot?
    Right, some people get caught in some random building, get chased around by a chainsaw madman. Its been done COUNTLESS times before. Nothing new, nothing original, its just violence.
