 Re: P2
P2
One of the worst "horror" movies ever. It was totally pointless and predictable. She was the worst actress ever. As an actress you're supposed to act how you think you would act in those situations, why then would you create so much noise in a quiet echoey car park when you are trying to hide from a mad man? Stop fucking moaning and screaming, bitch. With every breath came a semi-scream. That's not acting, and that;s definitely not creating suspense if that's what the director thought. I know you think it is acting, but it is not. That's 'pretending to act', which is b-movie territory to be in, and I can be sure that's why you haven't worked on anything good since. You're a b-movie actress.
Looking at her career, I was right! Conan the Barbarian, G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra, and a few TV series'....LOL. Also, I wish everyone would stop calling it a slasher movie. It wasn't. Bentley only kills one person that we see, and he does it with a car. Oh, oh, oh, a dog gets killed. wow. Still not a slasher movie. Just a really, really lame, and bland thriller.
He wasn't creepy at all. I also think that she should have just waited a few days. Then the panic would have been on him, because people would be asking questions, reviewing CCTV tapes and just wondering what the hell is going on. Why didn't she say something when she had the chance to call her family members? He wasn't going to hurt you anyway, so yelling something to alert them would have helped. This was just a really stupid movie devoid of any thought before filming began. An over-eager writer and director, probably.
So what happens after the movie? She murders a guy who is chained tothe car, and that's ok is it? Nichols and Bentley do their best to serve up zero tension. They should have let Aja direct instead of Franck Khalfoun, because Aja has proven to be a good horror director (Haute Tension). Even so, these two have worked together before and with Aja producing, you'd think the level would have remained the same for P2, but it dropped to DTV level. It was so badly acted. Looking at the box office for this, everyone thought it was shit too. LOL.
