I'm assuming that's a good thing.

Hmm, see, I think Winston's choice wasn't as binary as it seems. Yes, if they were psycho hillbillies, the parallel with Deliverance would be impossible to deny. But by making them a deformed psychotic family, the parallel seems to be closer to Texas Chainsaw Masacare. The woodsmen needn't be psychotic or monsterous at all. In fact, there've been urban legends that the isolated people of Smokey Mountains speak Cockney English. It'd be kinda interesting if the villains were somehow more civilized out in the woods than the heroes.

But I'm probably wanting the film to be something it's not, or at least have ambitions that the filmakers didn't. It'll still probably be very good.

Wasn't Michael Myers always the supernatural boogeyman? I mean, the first film ended that way. Never quite as bad as Jason Vorhees, but still. Bates, though, yes, was the king.

nice pic! I'm reading 'if chins could kill' right now and it's awesome
