Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Fresh and Exciting

Blistering performances.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

And you know what? It IS chalk full of goodness! Hats off to the creators of this flick for entering a line into the Hall of Fame of awesome movie quotes. I was told to watch this with my mind shut off and to just sit back and simply enjoy it for what it is. What's not to like?? A freaking killer soundtrack, some great action with shovel-related deaths (sweeeeeet!), and some hot-ass talent on-screen (see you in my dreams Barrett). I don't get why people are saying the plot was confusing. What's to confuse? Shovel-wielding maniac, meet demons, FIGHT! Sure, it's got it's flaws, but seriously what movie out there doesn't, indie or blockbuster? I can't wait to see what these guys come out with in the future. If this is something they set out to have fun with, then imagine what their next project will be like when they put their all into it. I think then a lot of criticizers of Desperate Souls will see the light.Go pick it up, grab a few friends and some drinks and enjoy it!

I rented this because I also saw the trailer and thought it might be OK.The first 5 minutes seemed OK and i got how this kid was orphaned but that's it.I liked the scene where the guy whacked his wife with one blow of a baseball bat to the head and then went to shoot his son but instead kills himself.I liked the way the scene was done because it was disturbing and i was sure the rest of the movie was gonna be good.I was wrong.The plot went all over the map and made no sense.I started to feel frustrated by trying to figure the Goddamn thing out and gave up.This movie is so weird I can't even rate it.I did get a few laughs out of it and i didn't mind the soundtrack(anything is better then hip hop & rap),but otherwise it was a waste of money unless your into brainless B movie's.

wow. this is quite possibly one of the worst movies ever made... and that's what you've gotta love about it! it's definitely one of the funniest movies i have ever seen. i didn't go more than 2 minutes without cracking up through the entire thing. i was seriously crying from laughing so hard. trust me, there are more memorable quotes in this movie than there were in napoleon dynamite. if you want to have a good time and watch a movie that is so bad you can't stop watching it, rent this one. it's a winner.it leaves you with one question... what the hell is with the manbag and vest?

Considering that my wife and I have a 15 month old daughter...we don't get to spend too much time watching movies, so in this case I guess it was a good thing we picked this movie....we turned it off 15 minutes into it. The cover of the movie and first 3-5 minutes had me thinking this could turn into an alright B movie, boy was I wrong. The actors (if you can call them that) who were in this should have been in an over the top drama class not a "horror flick" and the dialog...wow, that was by far the worst I think I have ever watched. By the way...it doesn't take a lot of money to write well. Good thing Blockbuster sent us a free pass or else I would have requested my money back!
