I certainly didn't expect much at first, but then I read some very positive reviews and also thought the first few minutes were really well done, so my expectations were heightened. I definitely think that the first half of this film is better than the second, which is why it's ultimately sort of disappointing. It's still watchable, if barely entertaining, but I feel like it definitely could have been more regarding its premise and its pretty original setting for a horror film. The acting is passable, but Englund really does bring a wicked charm to the role that he showed in the Elm Street films. Overall, I barely recommend this.
