I think it was the huge build up that set me up to HATE this movie and completely killed it for me. I truly wanted to like, no, LOVE this movie. Honestly, not only do I not like or love it, I hate it with a passion.

I wanted to be disturbed, I wasn't. That guy making the girl piss herself was supposed to shock me? Lame.

Also, forgive me for not knowing the character names,(only saw it twice and then sold my dvd to Strawberries_) but there was some truly horrible acting in this too. That guy taking heroin and trying to act all fucked up, that was god awful.

I guess its just one of those movies.
Its weird, not everyone likes the same cup of tea, of course. Usually if there is something people like(tv show, music, movie) and I dont like it, I can sometimes at least see why they like it. As far as TLHOTL goes, I dont get it at all. No explanation comes to mind.

Story: cool premise

Execution of premise: Lame

THE Wes Craven Factor: He's way overrated and this film is Exhibit A

Acting: Painful, it doesnt get any worse

Scary Factor: scale of 1 to 10? O (zero)

Shocking factor: It was less shocking than it was scary
