Another film in my que I haven't watched yet. From the trailer it looks like another Urban Legend monster movie like Candyman or Bloody Mary. This time ya gotta blow in a bottle found on a bridge? BUT, the trailer looks pretty cool. Problem is, I've seen movies where the trailer is better than the movie so I'm not getting my hopes up.

Anyway, here's the trailer...
 
Hey Tom, surprisingly have this one down as a must watch, but haven't got to it yet. More of the same or did the script writers find a new approach? Guess we'll find out.
 
In and of itself it can be an okay film to see but if you have seen any other urban legend movie it leaves much to be desired. Still, it has enough of a difference it could be a source for alternative legend discussion. Just don't expect too much or very different.
Candy Man and Bloody Mary are twice better film legends and worth more of a watch but given the bankruptcy of writers and directors lately, its still better than most horror flicks.
