Dead Silence (2007)
Say what you will about James Wan, but this is an unexpectedly creepy thrill ride.

Say what you will about James Wan, but this is an unexpectedly creepy thrill ride.

Good gore and scary stuff are negated by dumb behavior of annoying people. Verdict: average.

As sequels go, this one isn’t bad, but there is an “I’ve seen it all before” feeling to it.

All flash and style, but no substance.

Even giving the great David Hasselhoff a chance to make rent is not worth the agony inflicted on the audience.

Bottom of the barrel, and then a few more feet lower.

While this isn’t amazing, it’s a pretty fun zombie survival action flick.

Take this one as a raunchy comedy with lots of gore, and nobody will get hurt.

Oh how shocking, another dreadful, unfaithful adaptation of a video game!

Aside from the novelty factor, this B-flick masquerading as an AAA tentpole doesn’t have much depth going for it. All style, baby!
