its attempted subversion is a veritable mess of convoluted plot threads; "Dreamcatcher" is a solid attempt to introduce a new sound to the world of horror, but the track ends up coming out as overproduced noise
it does snare you into an intriguing plot; the opening & closing scenes are hugely effective in creating an atmosphere of dread and doubt. With a little more focus and some trimming of the fat, Dreamcatcher could have been truly great rather than decent
Dreamcatcher sort of harkens back to cheesy 1990s Kevin Williamson fare, without the production values, game actors, wit, or most crucially, scares. You'll be too busy being annoyed at the headache-inducing incomprehensibility of it all to be frightened
awful, gory serial killer movie; Shallow and all surface, this not-scary, nonsensical, and far too long "horror" movie offers nothing new and seems to have been made by people whose chief interest was posing for the camera
