9, 10... He's Back Again

One of the worst remakes to come down the Hollywood pipeline in the past couple of years. It has brought the series back to a straight up horror routine, but it doesn't contain one scary thing in it. I don't understand how giving the entire movie a dark and depressing look and throwing in some poorly executed jump scares can pass for genuine fear and suspense. It also displeased me that they recycled so many iconic moments from the original film just to have them in there. That's pointless to do so. Haley is a good actor and can be creepy, but he is wasted here. The kills were so lame and they even terribly recreated the best one from the original. Another empty, pointless remake.
