Worst movie I have EVER seen


This movie had me raging it was so bad. I have laughed off bad movies before, but this one takes the cake.

The plot is barely inexistant, and what plot it does have, has so many gaping holes through it that every 2 minutes I was thinkin " they don't seriously expect me to believe this, do they?"

Seriously. Freddy Kreuger and Hellraiser seem much more realistic than this. I would believe those killers in real life than I would the killer in this movie, while these are completely surrealistic settings, and THIS movie could at least be plasive in real life, isn't there something *beep* wrong with that?

The man gets thumped with a chandalier with knifes hanging from it and manages to throw it off, without nicking himself from any of the blades hanging, ignore the multiple cuts and manages to do fine, the protagonist has multiple chances to kill him but doesnt is apparantly a mind reader knowing they would electrocute the floor, and being a small guy, is twice as strong as the ex con who works a far more labourous job?

The other characters have no depth, everybody in it was completely stupid and just arrrrrghhh

Am I supposed to be able to swallow this?

I'm not expecting some amazing plot like Oldboy or something, but I DO expect a belivable plot. Saw was believable, the killings had reasons, and it was all intelligently setup and belieavable in a surrealistic sense.

Horrible, horrible movie.

Ah, the invention of the cell phone, and the downfall of horror. Coincidentally happening around the same time frame.

I still enjoyed the movie regardless. Part II has even more plot holes, but I enjoyed that one as well. I guess I'm just a gore hound.

Why is it that pretty much every film that is released there is some idiot who posts claiming it is the worst movie they have ever seen?

This movie is not terrible, it's not amazing and it certainly isn't the worst film ever made. It's a solid horror film with a few plot holes that still manages to be entertaining, such is the way with horror films these days. Horror films typically have plot holes and dumb characters so if this bothers you then just stay away from the genre in general.

This is a film where the IMDB rating is probably justified, 6/10 seems about right.

Cannot understand how this useless movie got 6+ score. I enjoyed the gory scenes reminiscent of all the SAW's, but the ending was total crap. What was the Collector collecting? The ending explained nothing and resolved nothing.

Basically, what was the point of the movie?

Er, to make money?

I assume, like me, you watched it on TV, so at least the backers didn't benefit financially from us. I'd give it a 2, for the laughs. I'm a generous guy.


...it's just another dumb film, get over it.

The cop did not call for the backup? Then how did several police cars with ambulance ended up at the scene of crime?

I thought this was a little better than all the Saw sequels.
