Not to mention, that all this has a very cool conclusion (the main idea if you wanna call it that) in the end.Town made two changes from the team which beat Portsmouth 3-2 on Saturday with Dominic Ball handed his Blues full league debut and Freddie Ladapo returning to the XI. It dares to be different and does not give you a bunch of teenagers being hunt down by one guy. I can only speak for myself and say that I liked the fact, that this was made the way it was. But I can understand, that some people did expect different things from it. But still, if you can go through the beginning and bear with it, when it gets pretty action-y towards the end, then you will enjoy it. If you know it, it won't hit you as hard as myself, when it gets revealed at the end. I have to admit, that I wasn't aware of an obvious reference, that the title might have suggested.

But I'm not going into detail about that, because I thought the movie was genuinely scary and creepy.
He had it all planned out (a story element would make this "impossible" to happen). Good or bad, the same director will be at helm, who claimed back then, that he wanted to make sure, that there wouldn't be any sequels. Now they plan the 3rd one, which is going to come out in 2011.
When I watched this the first time quite a few years ago, it seemed like it would be a one-off.
