Why do people rate [rec] so highly?

[okgo]

As above.

Watched it tonight, it was predictable right till the end, not really scary, just annoying. There were so many tired cliché scenes. Yet people on imdb rave about it, as have many on here. Odd. I didn't find it scary and I am normally pretty crap at getting scared etc.

[Negative Creep]

I thought it was awesome. I liked the way it starts off slowly, the first jolt come out of nowhere and final act is simply insane. I don't normally get scared easily but this film did the job, especially the final attic scene.

The first jolt?

the old woman that look mental and covered in blood, shock horror she went mental and jumped on the copper.

The final scene? The epitomy of cliche where our hero is dragged off into the night. The only suprise to me was that they didn't top off the cliche cup cake with some fingernail marks as she got dragged off.

I like I said don't get on well with horror films, this wasn't one in my opinion.
