My comments concern the VHS version I bought "pre-viewed" for 5 bucks. I wish I could have about 3 of those back.
The first things I noted were through-the-tube voices and high school level acting. Well, I don't expect much acting in a horror movie.
The whole look and feel told me I'd picked up something from maybe as far back as twenty years ago, so imagine my surprise when I saw it was from 2002!
Some of the music didn't fit, though at some point near the end I realized it suddenly was pretty darn good. Throughout the movie I kept wondering when I'd hear some heart-jumping sounds, either music or effects, but they never came.
The rating said something about sensuality. What sensuality? Do they mean the kid showering in his hip-hugger briefs? Or maybe it was supposed to be the leather-clad couple looking as though they were auditioning for porn made by Disney.
I didn't see much in the way of violence, either. If I recall correctly the stabbings were shown in *almost* slow motion, but the camera was cut away to other scenes before any knives hit their marks.
The Plot Summary has nothing to do with what's in the movie, though at the very end we find out that, yes, this is another reincarnation-type thing. At least in the first of these "Brotherhood" movies we know what's going on from the beginning.
And I don't think there was one scream in the entire film. sigh
