[edit] Genre

We need to come to a consensus on the genre for this film. I suggest thriller since it does "emphasize nervous tension and anxiety." I disagree with it being considered a slasher film given it doesn't satisfy any of the general characteristics listed in that description: "The slasher film is a sub-genre of the horror film genre. Typically, a masked, psychotic person stalks and graphically kills teenagers or young adults who are away from adult supervision...". mtz206 03:52, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

I agree, and I removed the slasher reference. Nightscream 09:18, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] March 10 edit by 70.30.127.52

Reverted the recent edit by 70.30.127.52. It needs citations, and seems a little like original research. If properly reinserted, should be in its own section (perhaps "Critical reaction"?), not in the Awards section. --mtz206 23:13, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
