See No Evil

 

 

 

 Starring: Kane

 Directed by: Gregory Dark

 Rated R

 Genre: Horror

 Synopsis: A group of delinquents are sent to an old hotel to clean it up as a part of their community service. But the problem is, the hotel that they thought was abandoned still has one last guest inside, a psychopathic killer. 

 My Thoughts: To be honest, I really still do not know what to think of this movie. This is the first movie I have ever reviewed that I really don't know what I am going to rate it. So lets continue, I am actually pretty eager to see what this movie will rate as.

   Scorecard

     Acting- Kane played the crazy killer Jacob Goodnight, and did a pretty decent job at it. Having seen him in WWE for the last few years, I figured that this character would be kind of kidded down, and it was in some aspects, but was still pretty good. Not great, but still good. The supporting actors really didn't have to do a whole lot. They just had to run around, scream, get killed, scream some more, act like whores, and scream a little more. (1/2)

     Direction- This film really didn't have very good direction. This film was directed by a former pornography director, which would explain some of the awkward shots in this movie. The story did not flow very well and was kind of rough at times, you kind of expect that from a first time major film director, but I do not except that as an excuse for bad direction. (0)

     Story- A group of troublemakers are sent to a hotel as part of their community service agreement, and they begin getting killed. While it's not the greatest story ever told, I have no problem with the general idea of the story. I did on the other hand have a problem with the way the story got to the ending, and what happened at the end of the film, it really took away from the story itself. (1/2)

     Expectations- I was expecting this movie to be kind of crappy. I was pleasantly surprised with what I got. While it was not the greatest movie I have ever seen, this film was a lot better than what I personally expected to see. (1)

     Boring?- This film had a few boring parts and a few scenes that dragged a little, that kind of hurt the overall flow of the movie, but for the most part it was pretty exciting to watch. (1/2)

   Final Score: 2 1/2 out of 5

 Final Thoughts: Sure, this movie got an average rating. It makes sense I suppose. Most critics have been bashing this movie, saying that there was "bad directing and genre clichés", I agree to an extent. There was bad directing, but the genre itself is cliché (which means overused for you normal folk out there). If critics really think about it, the Horror genre really hasn't been original since the 80's, get over it, this movie was not great by any means, but it was not as bad as people say it was.
