I love horror movies, but this one is nothing special. I like the lead girl's performance. That was really intense especially when she's getting her hair snipped off as she's groomed to be wed, but I swear everything in this movie I've seen someplace else, done better. One of the psycho family members is sympathetic... that's a cliché done to death, and it's just boring (same with the family dinner scene, thanks TCM). I did like her "children," but they don't really do much. They have one effective scene then they're forgotten about like they pose no real threat, and they were the only thing with promise. I didn't care for any of the characters... the young guys seemed to be just jerks, trying to get laid, and nobody seemed to be developed much. The torture scenes weren't even very original or intense (let's cut another Achilles tendon, thanks Hostel). I liked the beginning since it started out pretty different but then it got old real fast.
