I might have to check them out...the first 2 anyway. You know none of them appealed to me until I read these comments here. I might have to check them out…the first 2 anyway.

Shocking and inventive and pretty entertaining. We watched the third one about two weeks ago and we were totally disgusted. I don't know if it was made by different people or not and I couldn't be bothered to check. What bothered me the most was the editing. There were places it jumped so badly we kept backtracking the DVD, certain the disc had skipped a scene. What could have been pivotal moments seemed to be totally missing. Especially at the end. We backtracked it twice only to determine it wasn't the disc or the DVD player---it was just really horrible editing. And the foreshadowing did ruin the movie. "Look, this is how he's going to die" and "ho-hum, that's how he died". With the first two it was just BAM!---didn't see THAT coming, did you? I'm just glad I didn't buy it. :roll: We loved the first two, as well. Shocking and inventive and pretty entertaining.
