No they're not well directed, no, they're not believable (but if we start bringing plausability into horror films then we might as well dismiss 99% of them straight away!), and yes I'm sure that if you got a bunch of kindergarten kids to conjure up the most horrible stuff they could think of then they would probably be more imaginative, but these films are one of the best in their genre, which is crappy horror! At least in this respect they excel.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('13556','Rhian Owens'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('13556','Rhian Owens','I still can\'t watch them and I\'m really hard to scare after too many years of watching horror flicks.
