Opening a bed-and-breakfast in a quaint, small-town home, a man and his visitors for the grand opening find the home to be the legend of the vengeful tooth fairy who's targeting his youngest daughter and must stop the being's deadly rampage.

What did everyone think of this one?
Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup?

Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs.

This is a far better effort than it really should've been and has a lot to like about it. One of the better elements to this one is the fact that the brutality level is far above what's expected here as this one really lets the blood flow with some incredibly brutal and graphic kills that get shown in full detail, making the gruesomeness all the more pleasing and squeamish. Almost as important, the fact that this one manages to effectively put children in danger from the threatening ghost is a great sign, which really manages to make this one feel a lot more realistic for doing so as there's a legitimate force out there that children would be afraid of, which is helped along greatly due to the twist in the characters' back-story here, and is actively given a role in doing that which causes it to feel realistic and adds a new wrinkle to the proceedings. The overt supernatural tones present here make for even more fun here with the presence of the ghostly children, the catering to the supernatural traditions and the rather extensive and involved rules that have to be followed to keep everything in line to follow-up on are all quite a bit of fun and really make for this being a rather enjoyable effort. Even more so, the finale is where it really starts hitting it's stride with a multitude of frenetic chases, some intense stalking scenes and plenty of suspense and action mixed together into one wholesome, complete package that's quite entertaining. There's a few flaws here, mainly the fact that the film's decision to include the redneck brothers makes no sense as they're clearly cannon fodder from the start, their purpose in the film is utterly ludicrous and they serve no purpose at all for being in the film which makes the first half of this one drag on endlessly with all sorts of scenes dealing with them and their affect on the property. As well, the film's continual repetition of killing someone and not reacting to what had happened makes for some pretty off-kilter actions from the characters who are seemingly oblivious to what's going on around them, but these aren't that damaging overall.

I don't remember this much, beyond it being surprisingly tolerable and one of the survivors really shocking me.

Puppy, just because there's no evidence she killed her aunt doesn't make her dating material.

I used to have this on DVD but somebody randomly stole the disc and left a Creed CD in the case in its place. I never got around to watching it either, lol.

First time I've ever heard of a thief doing someone a favor (well, I haven't seen Creed, but I imagine it's way better than this) (lol) You can always stream it

Lol, so this was kind of ridiculous, but I can't say I didn't like it. It kind of felt like it was originally suppose to be a Children's 'Horror' movie, but at the last minute they decided to throw in some titties and gore. GL84 is right, there was almost zero sense of urgency from any of the characters (lol) People are being killed all over the house, and two other characters decide to go have sex. One even decides to go in the bathroom and 'get ready' before she does the dirty. Although, I don't know. Cole WAS pretty damn hot, so I may have dropped everything and had sex with him too (coffee)

The kills were great. My favorite was probably the nail gun + axe kill, with the woodchipper being the second.

What the hell was up with the two rednecks?

Oh well.

Like I said, I still found this quite entertaining. I'd definitely watch it again.

And Repo, I did like Star, but Darcy was probably my favorite. Star is definitely second though.

The ghost children stuff was cheesy, and definitely clashed with the more adult/slasher elements of the film, but like I said, it just seems like a gory episode of Goosebumps or something.

^You should lol. I'm pretty sure you'll like it too :P

Also, Charise reminded me so much of May from We Are Still Here. They even look alike, despite the different hair color lol.

Indeed, there's plenty to like here even if there's some infuriating flaws. For a more modern (well, if you count mid-2000s as modern) slasher, it's quite enjoyable.
