This is the only movie that when I watched it at the Theatre people, in the end people actually started throwing trash at the screen and demanded a refund!!
No Lie!!! I swear!!!
Of course no one got a refund because they saw the whole movie.
Worst Movie!!!!
Believe me, and for that dumbass that said if you like the ring you'll like this movie..YOUR A DUMBASS!!! -

Massively bad. No redeeming factors. Even watching it before seeing Ringu I thought it was a poor film, and having seen Ringu since you realise just how bad feardotcom actually is.
Use the CD as a coaster man. -

I'm going with very badly done,
not inherently bad.
Not disagreeng with anyone, just a different take.
I suppose it really grinds people
because the film makers realllllly
insult their audience from the beginning
and treat us stupidly throughout.
THe core insult is thar we are supposed to accept
this is taking place in New York City????????
Total crap.
I found it impossible to believe it was luxembourg at that!!!
Hell, they couldn't photograph that beautiful city,
much less pass it off as someplace else.
It looked like some dark eastern european mountain town
at it's worst after a war.
So it major league sucks from a production value standpoint,
bad enough to destroy credibility.
They couldn't eeven shoot a sunny day,
much less clean up Michael sarrazin.
It all looked like the dirtiest place on earth.
BUT, at least the actors tried.
They stayed faithful in spite ofthe weak story.
So if you look past that,and can enjoy the grim
manifesto the story presents,
and embrace the horrific misery that the antagonist creates,
and try to solve the mystery, which was weak but interesting,
it's slightly bearable if only in that regard.
It's not better that a sitting for "Hostel" or "Saw"
but not a whole lot worse.
I never bothered with the sequels to either one.
Just my thoughts.
in 15 years this will become a "Freaky Cult Classic" anyway. -

I love it.
- I enjoyed the story.
- I liked most of the performances.
- I like William Malone's style a lot. I liked his
House on Haunted Hill
remake a lot, too. He's as poetic and surrealistic as he is "logical". I like that. - The cinematography, production design and editing in this film are all Oscar-worthy, in my opinion. Seriously.
- It's got a great score, too.
- Natascha McElhone has always been just stunningly beautiful and entrancing to me. Even if I didn't like all that other stuff above, I'd enjoy watching the film just to see her.
Is everyone in this house a total nutzoid or is it just me?

Ah, it was okay. I saw it for Udo Kier and Jeffrey Combs, even though Udo was only in it for the first ten minutes, at best. Oh well. You're right, at least it was free I got a deal with some books that was like that. The two that I bought were absolutely amazing, but the free one ended up being terrible and I couldn't even make it to the third chapter, lol.
What is this? This is piss. Piss with ink.

Yeah, it is really bad. I was high-budget, pretty well-known, and I get off on crappy horror films. Me and my friends like to laugh at how ridiculous they are. But this one was so bad I couldn't even laugh about it. The plot is pretty much nonexistent. The acting is, well, unconvincing at best. There is not a single sentence in this movie that hasn't been uttered in countless horror films. I expected it to be crap (as most horror movies are) but not this crap.

I can usually find something good to say about almost any movie. I often seek out bad movies deliberately, because they can be fun to watch.
'Feardotcom', however, is just plain bad. It's so bad that it made me feel angry and depressed. It is a miserable excuse for a movie!
