Wes Craven's slasher pic is a waste of time and money

Wes Craven's uber lame and actually uber disappointing slasher movie really serves no other purpose except for something that he can kill time with while we all waited eagerly for Scream 4 to come out (which with at least that movie, it most certainly did not dissapoint me, what so ever). The problems, which are a great many, are also rather gaping: The actors can't act, the killer isn't scary, the dialog is horribly written, we have seen this a thousand times, the characters are painfully contrived and cliched, and last and most importantly: Wes Craven could be doing so much better than this (Scream 4, anybody)! But, I must move on: There is almost constant strong bloody violence and gore, with numerous grisly slashings to the throat, stomach and various other parts of the body, with almost always accompanied by huge buckets of blood to complement them. Also, there if frequent strong profanity with about 48 uses of f--k, but also includes uses of c--t, sh-t, d-mn, g-dd-mn, h-ll and ass. Well, that's about it, but if you have any dignity and respect for Wes Craven what so ever, you will no better than to watch this train wreck.

Excellent film for Craven's return.

My Soul To Take is an excellent supernatural/chiller horror film. Just like most of Craven's work, it will keep you guessing till the end. The violence is not as bad as most of Craven's work, you don't see the killer actually stabbing/slashing the person. You see the aftermath. Like a girl gets a tree branch stabbed through her neck (or that's what it seems) but you don't actually see the tree branch, you see the gallons of blood on display afterwards. This is an excellent film for Craven's return into the film business. There is some talk of sex, but is never shown. There is constant cursing, multiple uses of f**k, s**t, d**k, and plenty more. This is still a good movie to start off with kids that are finding an interest in horror movies.My Suggested MPAA Rating, R: Bloody horror violence, disturbing images, pervasive language, and some sexual material.

Not the best, but still good. Pretty comical. But very violent. But that's Wes Craven for you. :)

My MPAA Rating, R: Explicit strong bloody violence, pervasive language, and sexual situations

Slightly disappointing Wes Craven thriller

Since it was written and directed by Wes Craven, maker of the orginal Elm Street and Last House on the Left, and the Scream movies, I thought it would be great along those lines but I was disappointed. It was okay I guess. I just expected more from him. This movie barely got pervasive language, with around 51 F-bombs. You have to have over 50 for pervasive language. There was no gore but it was fairly bloody during the killing scenes. It was okay

check out my page for more awesome recommendations

this supernatural slasher about a serial killer who may have returned from the dead is full of slicing and dicing, with gallons of blood on display. There are also two instances in which adults hit teens. Language is quite strong, with many uses of "f--k" and "s--t." There are some sexual situations, including one involving teen pregnancy, but not much is shown onscreen. Most of the lead characters are 16, and the movie is being presented in 3-D (which, of course, makes everything that much more intense), so it's primed for teen consumption.
