Has anyone seen it?  Thoughts?

 

I saw it last weekend.  I don't want to post spoilers, but I'm not even sure what would be considered a spoiler.  So don't read on if you can't wait to see it and know nothing about it.


I kept hearing how great this movie was, it had a mid-90's on the tomato meter, I heard references to Hitchcock and some of the classic ghost story kind of things.


I had no idea it would be...well, what it was.  If I had known that it was such a deconstruction of the genre, a satire, I probably would have loved it.  But I went in expecting it to be like I felt after The Blair Witch Project or The Others or Alien or 28 Days Later.  This wasn't that at all...

 

I  know the movie was made years ago, but I also think the timing REALLY sucked as it has some serious similarities to the Hunger Games (the giant dome, controlled elsewhere).

 

Besides, I kept waiting for Bradley Whitford to say he was going to find President Bartlett.

 

Anyone else?

I've only seen the trailers, so I was having some flashbacks to 'Lost' for a bit. It still looks interesting, and Joss Whedon comes up with some interesting story lines.

Also, that Hemsworth guy is in it, and he is man-pretty.

I love Hulu, if only for the amount of movie trailers you can watch!
