But by the time Spiral reached the middle of the film, it was so clear that it pulled any fun out of the chase. One thing I was hoping for was the idea that the game was back on-the mystery behind who was really pulling strings. We know they are going to die before the cranks even start pulling since we have already been shown the scene where Zeek finds pieces of their bodies. The question of if they are going to live to die. The problem is that the rest fails to add in the suspense that really brings on that unsettling feeling we know from the franchise.

But rather the second more campy horror films. So what does that mean for Spiral? Well, I liked it, but not because it was the first category like it tried to hype itself up to be. The truly terrifying ones that make you sleep with the lights on for days and the campy ones that make you laugh the entire way through. I want to preface this that I love horror movies of all kinds.
