edit: "you CAN tell"

Okay, I'm definitely in the minority here, but I liked it. Then again, I'm a big fan of the movies of the 20s and 30s, like The Wolfman and Nosferatu. No, it's not perfect--the ending's a little lackluster, and you tell it was done on a very tight budget--but it's nowhere near as terrible as these comments led me to believe.
