Someone else. We talked about it very briefly in another thread last week after I watched it

Yeah, I found the thread.

This is what I had said:

Don't watch it....it's pretty bad.

Admittedly, I went into it wanting it to be great though (the trailer is pretty awesome), but it just wasn't. Also, before I watched it, a couple people on here told me it wasn't that great, but I decided to watch it anyway.

Overall, I'd give it about a 5 or 6 out of 10. Some of the videos are kinda stupid and the actions of the people in them simply don't make sense (not even a little bit). But I guess it's worth a watch if you're curious...I wouldn't recommend paying for it though. But the premise (five directors doing 5 different horror short stories) is definitely cooler than the execution IMO.

Good one, although I did like the movie a bit. It depends on what you expected.

Battle: Los Angeles. Great trailer that sets the mood but the film, predictably, sucked.

I just found the winner of this thread.

Camp Hell

The trailer makes it look like a supernatural horror movie.

The movie is essentially a dramatic re-enactment of "Jesus Camp"

I almost posted that one earlier in the thread. The thing with that one is that the whole movie is actually really good...and then literally the last prolly 2 minutes of the movie (if even that much) are so bad that it practically ruins the rest of the movie. It's like they had NO clue how to end it and just made something up.

Before the ending, I'd rate it as maybe a 7/8 out of 10. After it ended, that drops to about a 4/5.

I disagree. It's in my top 20 favorite movies of all time. The trailer is by far the best trailer ever though. So I could see where it would give someone super high expectations.

True Grit is good movie. However, its trailer is amazing.
