Scar

Angela Bettis of "May" fame stars as a woman who returns home for her niece's graduation.There her haunted past resurfaces and the serial killer whom she thought she years ago killed once and for all is out to make her life living hell.This 3D/HD horror thriller is very bloody and gruesome.There are some graphic torture scenes of teenage girls that made me cringe.The script is utterly ridiculous and the film is clearly influenced by "Saw" and "Hostel".The identity of killer comes across as laughable.There are some huge lapses in logic and several young characters are downright annoying.Angela Bettis is pretty much wasted in this mediocre flick.5 out of 10.

I saw the 3D version of this movie in a Belgian theater last week. I did not expect anything special of this movie, but it was 3D, and the last time I experienced that, was in Eurodisney. So I thought it would be cool. Unfortunately the 3D didn't work out very well. Maybe the glasses weren't good enough. Anyway.

The movie has some cool new gore effects. Some effects that are really nasty to watch and twisted to even think of. The girls are nice to watch but unfortunately, this film is just another Hostel inspired teen movie. At the end there are some typical "no-one believes me" and "I did it because of blah blah blah". I don't know why this movie is shown in theaters. It's descent enough for straight to DVD.

To bad. This had potential

A cop gets murdered in his own car, then the killer breaks into the house, kills the other cop, kidnaps the niece, and even waits to be seen by Joan across the street, and the other cops still can't figure out who it is. Classic plot involving idiot cops, stealthy killer, and falsely accused underdog...until she ends up solving the whole thing.

Mediocre warmed over torture-porn that isn't particularly awful, it's competent enough. But it's not that compelling I lost interest far before the boring little grue-fest movie ended. Some of the cast had been in much better genre film, Angela Bettis in the much superior "May" and Titus in the cult classic "Killer Klowns from Outer Space", both of which are much more worthy of your valuable time than this dreary number.

In the interest of full disclosure, seeing this on Netflix, it obviously wasn't the 3-D version, but I strongly feel it wouldn't affect my scoring of the movie that much

I just realize that my title/summary could be confused with my rating. It wasn't my intention. Originally I would've given the movie a 5/10, but in the end (of the movie), I was more disappointed by the opportunities it missed, than the not so bad 3-D things it had (although once you watch a 3-D movie in an IMAX theater, there's nothing that can compare to that experience).

The movie is standard horror fare, so to speak, with some nice actors (some beautiful, some talented). I even liked the fact, that the movie didn't try to squeeze a big 3-D moment from every scene. It would have annoyed me. On the other hand, I heard people complain, that it didn't really make much of it's 3-D. So there you go, two sides of a coin. Depends on which side you will look then.
