Just finished watching it, acting was OK for the most part, main guy was very good. The film looked OK in places and there were some tense scenes. But the script needed a lot of work in terms of plot and the characters motivations. Some of their choices were just totally illogical and very unbelievable. The ending was awful.

Re: Old concept but Film is BEST in every field
Really? I watched it because I'd never seen the concept done and thought it was a good idea (and was puzzled why it hadn't been done yet).
I think it was one the best movie in this concept like ( killing one by one in suspense style)
Really? Even with zero character development so we don't care about them first?
direction / acting / suspense / thriller was amazing
Huh? Acting was damn right awful in some spots and there was no suspense or thrills.
The only good parts were the look of the killer and when it ended (as in when it was finally over, not the non-existent ending that is)
Do you say you like it because you worked on it?

only scary part was the couple of hours I spent watching it
it was so boring it made you think the 72minutes was actually 120minutes
classic,
yeah it sucks, the filmmaker says this is his only GOOD film [grin] i'm not watching anything else by him then (and he was in the running to director the next UNDERWORLD movie HOW?)

Well it has been done before. Don't assume because you havent seen this that its a new idea.

No character development? You must have missed the whole alcoholic, father, the father/Daughter issues including possible physical abuse, the daughter conflicted on whether she should actually get her Dad fired, the main characters possible of losing his job, loss of his daughter and his need to redeem himself at the end. I think it was pretty well for a film that was shot like a random day at school and didn't "need" much strong development anyway.

The problem with this movie definitely wasn't the acting. If anything it was a lack of a strong script and good direction. The characters really couldn't have done their roles better so your just not making any sense. I do agree the film at times has a loss of direction. The lack of direction was saved a little at the end by cutting the movie so short.
Just because one don't like something doesn't make everyone else's opinion invalid and you don't look anymore intelligent by picking peoples posts apart thinking your opinion is somehow more valid then his/hers.Accusing people of being part of the production is just lame and old. Get a new argument not everyone has the same tastes.
I think this movie was about a 6. Not overly great, but entertaining and ok for a watch on a Sunday afternoon. Would I pay for it? No. -

I wasn't assuming, I was expressing surprise.

Having him be an alcolholic isn't character development at all, character development is slowly getting us to knkow the characters and what you bring up about any conflict betweeen daughter and father are only at the end.

Doesn't change the fact that is WAS awful from almost every cast member.

Agreed.

Never said it did and I'm not "picking apart" posts, i'm simply replying to each part separately so there is no confusion, always have, always will.
Accusing people of being part of the production is just lame and old.
"Accusing"? Hmm, wring chooice of word there that's for sure, and saying to enjoy it you must have been a part of the production team (to finally see what you help create) is a legit opinion so deal wth it.
Get a new argument
"Argument"? What the hell are you talking about?
not everyone has the same tastes.
Agreed, nevers aid otherwise.

Fair enough.

The movie did have a little character development though very insignificant. All we know about the main character is that he was an alcoholic and daughter didn't get along with him but other than that nothing else.
The bigger issue is this movie didn't seem to have any motive. All of a sudden a group of hooded killers starts killing everyone in the school that we don't care about. Their really wasn't any suspense to it if you ask me. They were picking up random people and bludgeoning them for no reason. Not much hide and seek either.
The story about the man's troubled life didn't amount to anything as it didn't serve any purpose in the grand scheme of things. We were never told who those hoodies were or why they were killing everyone. One might say not everything has to be explained but without some clue or motive, this is just another movie with mindless killing.
