Agreed, a terrible hyped up beast, glad I saw it free.

Most of my friends enjoyed it, but its really not my thing. I'm looking for "Where the Wild Things Are." Where's that?

i got motion sickness big time in the theater
i liked the film, but it was overhyped just like blair witch was

 Hands down....the funniest movie of the year.

Absolute Putrid.I wanted to shoot the two of them it was that bad.

Loved loved loved this genuine film. Best of 2009

Popular movies always get backlash, that's just how this is. However, I will be picking up the Blu-Ray of this film the day of it's release. I saw it before it even expanded outwards of 100 theatres and absolutely loved it.

Definitely this is a MUST BUY.

You can't be serious. I thought it was the least scary movie ever made.
It was almost as bad as THE BOX, which is, without a doubt, the worst movie of the year!

I thought it was relatively terrifying. This is one of my favorite kind of pictures, where it's those things that go bump in the night... but those bumps in the night come around and F*CK you up. I don't equate gore and kills with scariness - some people think the "Saw" movies are scary. No, they're not - they're just gross for grossness' sake. I'll take a no-budget, leave-things-to-the-imagination kinda movie (like "Paranormal Activity" over the multimillion-budgeted "Saw" or "Halloween" remake.

I really appreciated this movie for what it was, and I enjoyed seeing it. The ending still gives me nightmares, and I'm a 33-year-old man. There are several things that always freak me out in horror movies, and this movie contained at least two of those things.

Don't know if this is a Blu-Ray buy, but it's mine the day of release.

p.s. I thought "The Box" was an excellent meditation on our values and what we hold "important".

I thought it was great. Obviously it was going to have a mainstream backlash. It's a movie that doesn't show much, but it's what is not seen that's scarier. I myself love these minimalist films (I also thought OPEN WATER was terrific, and even better than this). I wouldn't say this was "scary," but it was creepy. I never find any movies scary though so I'm not surprised I wasn't scared by this. People who do get scared by movies will likely find it pretty scary. The fact that it managed to be creepy for me is a feat in itself because supernatural movies usually do nothing for me. I found it very engrossing. A nice slow build kind of movie. I think it's awesome it became such a huge hit. It deserves it more than the mainstream c**p that gets released all of the time. I can't believe some people actually found that godawful Haunting in Connecticut scary. Paranormal Activity is the rare supernatural horror movie that actually worked for me. People who are open minded enough to enjoy it likely will. I will definitely eventually purchase it, though it won't be the same at home, IMO. I'm seeing it again theatrically on Friday.

Where The Wild Things Are ? Are you serious ? It bore hardly any resemblance to the incredible book that we all grew up with.

Anyone who is scared by this c**p really needs to get their heads checked. In no way, shape, or form is this scary. You what is scary ? Things that could actually happen. I just can't get scared or even surprised by things that are supposed to be scary. Michael Myers is scarier than Paranormal Activity. A guy with a mask and a knife ? That could ACTUALLY happen. And it has....more than once. This ? Uh-uh. Not even shocking. Blair Witch was scary.

2-disc Blu-ray disc? I'm sold! I never got around to seeing the film, but will blind buy.

Well duh, the book was 10 sentences long.

I certainly hope there will be more than just the one alternate ending included on the disc as there was more than one filmed and/or tried.

Joseph,you have a totally distorted vision of the horror genre, If this film you're not afraid definitely you are a Martian from another planet:laugh2:

I'm glad both versions are on the dvd. I haven't seen the theatrical version but am aware of the differences and the ending. The original version, or in this case the "Unrated" version was a great film and I think the original (in this case "alternate" ending is a much more effective one.

People, stop hating on this movie for being "over-hyped"... like that's the movies fault.

And don't tell me that if you walked into this movie not having seen a trailer or hearing any word of mouth on it you wouldn't be calling up all your friends afterwords telling them all about this new freaky ass movie you just saw.

I'm not 100% on this but I think I read that only two endings were filmed. Another involving the girl slitting her throat was pitched but never filmed.
