"A new type of horror" ? Seriously ? That is either one of the most deluded or arrogant statements I've ever heard.
In all fairness I've tried tio think what I liked and what i didn't about it.
Liked :
- The first song they did on the stage
- The conversation in the bus stop before his mum was burned reallly made me feel something toward the pair of characters
- Sturgess's performance
- The weapons man
Disliked :
- The "Look in the bathroom mirror, close it and the shock comes" bit. Has no-one in the production seen a horror film in the last 20 years to know that's been done to death ? I cannot beleieve that a lot of the audience gasped at that.
- The "Meeting the devil". As soon as he started to get messages on the iPhoen I though "He's lost it and this is in his imagination". Sadly, that cliche proved to be true. Also felt like meeting the Oracle in the second Matrix film.
- The little girl as a guide "concept". Again, felt like it was out of the Matrix films.
- The devil/demon. Barechested with long leather jacket, are you kidding me ? How hackneyed is that ?
- The location. I know the area well, and the fact that you're about 150 yards away from Brick Lane full of media type wankers (no offence

- The rent boy. Utterly ridiculous and made any sympathy for anyone completely disappear as I was taken completely out of the film.
- The sudden turning up by his nephew was telegraphed and that plot point was competely contrived
I'm genuinely sorry that I didn't like this as I really wanted to. Maybe watching out of the context of the previous 4 days of horror films, so i know what to expect, may have improved my opinion.

Mind you, at least it didnt; have "My mobile isn't working" to make it completeluy cliched.


edit - meant to add, I'm disappointed that there weren't audience questions just so that French lady could have asked something ......
