There's a few fun moments, but I'm not one for 'post-modern' ain't we cool type films. I didn't think it was original. Also, I wouldnt even class it as a horror film.

I'm in the minority on this, in fact I'm probably standing alone on an Island. But, horses for courses etc...

I loved it although I can see why it would might grate if you're not into that sort of deconstructive film. Even so there's a lot to like I thought. The scene with the wolf's head was insanely creepy and tense and the film had well rounded and believable characters who you cared about! The first death shocked me as I realised how much I was enjoying just watching these characters hang out, something sorely lacking in these sort of films.
