I admit, the only reason I saw this movie tonight is that the theater was showing Paris Hilton's sex tape instead of previews. That and I find Chad Michael Murray to be incredibly sexy. And lucky for me there is a scene where he is sans shirt. *swoon*
I wasn't expecting much as most "horror" films are anything but scary. I usually find myself laughing instead of jumping. So I was pleasantly surprised. Well I don't know if pleasant is the right word.
It opens with a bunch of kids ready to go to some big football game. And it isn't a very promising opening to a film. Actually it was quite lame. And on the way to the football game, the group of 6 friends stop to camp overnight.
Why anyone would ever think camping on the side of some creepy road is a good idea is beyond me. But that was their first mistake. And of course some creepy truck shows up and leaves. And one chick "hears" someone creeping around the campsite in the middle of the night.
The next mistake is when that same girl, Carly, decides to go find out what causes some stinky stinky smell the wind blows their way. And since that wasn't a good idea to begin with, she finds some nasty nasty heap of road kill. But luckily they find a guy dumping a deer and some chickens that happens to have a truck. And since they need a new fan belt, their luck seems to be getting better, right? HA! Don't get in a car with creepy road kill man.
So that leads us to where the movie really gets started. And it gets really freaky when you first see the large scary scissors coming out of the floor. I knew what was coming. And cutting one's achilles tendon has always been a fear of mine.

I believe that this is the first time I've seen a reference in a move review to the surgical extraction of a bot fly. Nice touch!

I try to reference odd things in my reviews I guess :)
The movie was enjoyable. Zero in the way of character depth, and no development at all. The one non-white person was Paris's black boyfriend. Two dimensional. The two dimensions? Football and sex.
