I just love this movie
This movie captivated me, I was still a teenager when this came out and the first time I watched it, I enjoyed it so much. It is a proper thriller movie, I do not understand why it is listed as horror, maybe because of the death toll in, however it is much more a thriller than it is a horror movie. It could possibly be one of the reasons people do not like this movie, this is not a slasher film, the story has a great toll to play on the outcomes of those in the movie. They managed, at least for me (a person who does not tend to overthink anything when watching movies, and just tends to let the plot unravel), the climax and the "reveal" was a bit of a surprise for me, watching it now, I find foreshadowing to lead you to the "reveal", which is quite rare to see in most movies now. Note there is death in this movie, that's part of the plot, however some of the people also swear a lot in the film, nothing that would bother anyone over the age of 12 (swearing accounts, I'd assume the deaths in the film as well however to each their own).

Wes Craven creates another ultra-violent horror movie
Although not as good as Craven's previous thrillers, this ultra-bloody thriller holds its own. The cast is decent, but nothing Oscar-worthy. The story seems new, but it treads on old ground. The movie was well-made, but it would have been a lot better with more back story. Parents: This movie has plenty of bloody gore and enough tension and disturbing situations (including a father butchering his family) to give your kids nightmares. Please use caution, even with horror-obssessed teens. Bottom Line: With frequent suspense, comic relief, decent acting, and lots of blood, this new-age horror movie is sure to keep your attention for a good 105 min. But, don't expect a new horror classic. I believe we still have a little more waiting to do for that. Thanks for reading! - Movie Man
