It's slow, not enough gore, it's slow, skelter, borefest, slow, here's Johnny, yawn, snow, the end.
I don't get the high rating for this movie. It's boring. Nicholson is overrated as always. There's fuck all happening really. I don't feel sympathy for the characters, it's never scary or frightening, unless you find a lumberjack with an axe frightening.
Movie no have jump scares every three seconds. Me find it boring.
sharebecause Kubrick? and you can't say bad things about Kubrick like you can with Nolan, because he's snuffed it?
I watched both versions of the Amityville horror recently. I preferred the 2005 version to the 1979 version. the 2005 version was much faster paced, the 1979 version was more "this" - maybe that was the audience in 1980. maybe 1980's horror scenes tend to be about the persons reaction to the thing happened (close up shot of person going "aaaaaargh"), rather than the actual thing that is happening
Not enough gore and nudity for you?
shareI thought the first third of the film was a bit slow paced but it does pick up quite a bit during the last two third's of the movie, I feel this is one of the films where the second half is better than the first half.
