I love horror movies. Not so much into the 3D part of it. But I love A Nightmare on Elm St, Friday the 13th, Halloween! And even some of the better ones of the last few years. The Scream movies were decent. I enjoy a good scare, even if its campy. If this one isn't only shown in 3D, I'll probably go see it, but if its only in 3D I'll wait for the DVD. 3D gives me a headache.

Personally I think it looks crappy and will wait till it comes to dvd. But to each their own and if you need a little fake scare to escape the sad times we live in now so be it! Everybody escapes in different ways.Be good to one another we are all we have. Love and happiness to you all!
