      Am I missing something? I only see two other comments and while one is definitely negative the other is passively negative. Your negative comment about negative comments is the second most negative comment so far! 😜

        I entered the thread and saw people just being immediately pessimistic. I don’t terribly care for that.

    Who cares about what film critics say…? Would not be the first movie that gets a high rotten tomato score just to then be utter shit.

    Hm… non-American horror movie… with a high rating from Rotten Tomatoes.

    Meh, I’ll find time to watch it. Not going to get my hopes up, however.

      non-American horror movie

      I’d personally take that as a reason to be intrigued - other cultures bring different elements to the genre.

        It does pique my interest.

        However, I cannot for the life of me watch British television shows except for Mr. Bean.
