I watched this tonight on Movie Channel on demand, and while I recognize it's obvious influences, found it quite enjoyable. The characters reminded me quite strongly of real people I know, and the movie builds a lot of tension from the 'boring dialogue scenes that no one online seemed to enjoy. I thought they were well written and fairly amusing (although admittedly a little slow). Really, there were a few parts of the film, particularly when the friends are actually playing the 'dead mary' game, that had me a little freaked out. I liked the fact that the film had no jolt scares, and when I kept expecting them, and they kept not coming, it was just slowly twisting me around. After the big reveal, I enjoyed trying to figure out who was good and who was bad. Yes, there was not a lot of explanation as to what was going on. But, really, in real life, when the shit comes down on your head, do you think that anyone is going to sit there and explain it to you?
