    THE WHACKED OUT MAN!!!

    This by far had to be THE STUPIDEST movie i've ever seen. THANK GOD i didn't see this in the theaters. I would've wasted 8$ instead of only $4.50 at blockbuster. This is not by any means a horror flick. I'm suprised this even made it to the theaters. The creator of this story should be tarred and feathered for coming up with such a stupid story. Throughout the entire film Nicholas Cage has epilleptic attacks due to his experience with the girl getting killed in the car crash in the beginning of the movie. Later, he tries to find his daughter Rowan on the GOD FORSAKEN island of Summersisle, only to find out that the he was doomed to die burning to death in a gigantic wicker man in the end. DON'T GO TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!! YOU WILL SINCERELY REGRET IT!!! AND WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T RENT IT AT BLOCKBUSTER!!!!

  • Oh No!

    CRAP

    why please tell me why would anyone ever think of making a freakin movie where you kill nicolas cage!!! WHY! I just don't understand!! What were they thinking when they made it and what was he thinking when he took the part! they were all on crack!

  • Oh No!

    Worst movie I've ever seen.

    Really poor plot, acting, and cinematography. Not scary, though it tries to be. This is a classically bad movie, and may be fun to watch if only to make a list of all the ridiculously bad Nicolas Cage lines.
