* UnintentionallySympathetic: The filmmakers admitted (gleefully, in fact) that they wanted the teenaged victims to be as annoying as possible in order to make Jacob Goodnight look cool (as if that was even necessary for gore-loving horror fans). Problem is, the kids just aren't quite annoying ''enough'' to justify their murders. The fact that they're in that hotel against their will and are pretty much helpless also tends to lend much sympathy to them.

* CriticalDissonance: Reviews were overwhelmingly negative, with only a 9% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. However, the audience score is split right down the middle at 50%. While it's generally seen as nothing great, most horror fans agree that it's nowhere near as awful as critics made it out to be, and it certainly has its fans, enough to spawn a sequel 8 years later.
