Bad Reviews

OK, this may not be perfect movie but I really like Wes Craven. It is no "Scream Movie." Now about the reviews I read. The people that keep on saying that the black guy died first is completely wrong. If you watch it closely or at all in the beginning it starts of with one white guy and white girl on traveling sail boat and stumble on a island. The girl gets off the boat and walks into the woods. The girl is attacked by the dogs and killed. OK, now tell me who was killed first? The girl that was killed did not turned into some black dude and then got killed. Come on people. Don't make lame excuses to say the movie is bad. Yes, there were movies where a black dude dies first but this is not one of them. Yes, the black dude was first out of the five in their 20's but not first out of the movie. The younger brother was a student of vetenarian, so they were not teenagers. Maybe if he was just fresh in college and 17 or 18 would make them all teenagers, but no one knows if the are or not, so I concider them not teenagers. Not all horror flicks are teenagers. If you want a movie that has the black person dying first look at "Scream 2." That was a for sure black person died first movie. This movie was not about the teenagers it was about dogs that were tested on with scientists and the dogs became rabid and lived longer than supposed to. I mean some of reviews on this site make me sick. I swear this site is good but just some of the people that say things about movies, sounds like they just watched one movie and disliked it and took there opinion of it and overexagerrated it. This movie is no 10 but it is not as low as the people put in here. Just because some or most of you did not like it does not mean others would not. I understand opinions but to tell others not to go see it or rent it is up to them. I personally say go see it but don't take my word, take what you think from the previews and not from bad reviews.
