They were mostly ok but some looked kind of cheap. Gore Gunshot wounds A human gutting Stab wounds Cut off tounge I Learned You can kidnap and kill people, shoot weapons off inside your house, be act creepy, have a deadly security system, and be crazy all in the middle of suburbia and no one will notice All that is needed to keep people locked in your basement is a thin fence made of small boards Bottom Line THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS is one of Wes Craven's more original movies. It starts off and the pace really doesn't let up and the only things that really hampered the movie were that it had a happy ending that really didn't fit with the rest of the film and that you really aren't afraid for fool's life becuase they almost never kill off children, ecspecially if they're the star. It provides a great waste of time with almost all of the characters over-acting with great effect, and in terms of quality it is still yards ahead of some of Wes Craven's other films; mostly Scream 2 and 3. |
