This is another problem with Hollywood, was it Reddit or Creepy Pasta that did it first? I know the Why Files did a decent job with it. They all told scary stories and left the end open.... so Hollywood saw that it was a fan favorite story and they turned it into a movie, but the story didn't have a clear ending, and Hollywood doesn't know how to write, so in the end you get a story that goes nowhere because it was based on an unresolved creepy conspiracy theory that didn't have a clear ending. I wouldn't have minded an ending of some kind, even if it was ambiguous or a cliff hanger. That would have been nice. And then the other failing. Listen Hollywood, if you're not going to try and scare us when you're making a horror movie, at least give us tits and gore like you used to. Watching people run through an endless maze with no resolution or point is less exciting than watching a hamster do it for a treat, at least the hamster gets a resolution. If you're not going to give us scares and plots then give us tits and carnage candy and turn it into a slasher.
