Blu-Ray Review: ‘My Soul To Take’
My Soul To Take isn’t a good film by any stretch, but it’s fascinating to watch in the same way an Ed Wood flick is. Wes Craven’s return to the director’s chair after a four year absence (and the first time he’s written and directed since New Nightmare) is an unmitigated mess, filled with unbelievable dialogue, the plainest kills possible, horrible acting, and a story that feels the need to rehash its exposition in lieu of a satisfying finale. In many ways, it feels like a Scary Movie entry from the future, compiling every cliché and random act of stupidity seen in genre films and trying to make them relevant again like fashion statements from a few decades ago.
