Bad movie genre grouping !Why itunes have so bad genre grouping !?
This movie definitely is not a thriller !.SHlaX_SRBScore: 2/5
Great horror film!Don’t listen to the Rotten Tomatoes critics, this film came out in 1998 and made about 45 million dollars on a 14 million dollar budget for a reason. It’s not a scream clone, it’s about Urban Legends that we all hear growing up. The opening scene with Brad Dourif as a Gas Station Attendant is worth it to me. Note the Dates on the Rotten Tomatoes review 2010 etc, if you didn’t see the film then, you need to take the year of production in consideration on your review, or realize you shouldn’t be reviewing horror films..ShadowkanjiScore: 5/5

Deutsch Pendelton College, New England. Der Jahrestag des brutalen Serienkiller-Massakers in der Stanley Hall der Traditions-Uni soll mit einer makabren Party gefeiert werden. Doch die düstere Legende, die vor 25 Jahren mit der Klinge eines irren Mörders geschaffen wurde, streckt ihre Krallen in die Gegenwart. Ein Psychopath geht um und mordet scheinbar wahllos. Schulleitung und Studenten sind hilflos und entsetzt. Doch Natalie und ihre Freunde Parker, Brenda, Sasha, Damon und Paul wollen nicht wie die Kaninchen vor der Schlange erstarren. Viel können sie gegen das Morden nicht ausrichten. Und sie können sich gegenseitig nicht trauen.
Italiano Tra gli studenti di un campus universitario americano si alimenta l'interesse per quelle leggende metropolitane nate e cresciute sulla base di macabri fatti di sangue tramandati da persona a persona
Français Les étudiants de l'université de Pendleton suivent assidûment les cours consacrés aux légendes urbaines qui évoquent des histoires terrifiantes dont on ignore l'origine. Lorsqu'une élève est sauvagement assassinée et que d'inexplicables disparitions surviennent, seule Natalie Simon soupçonne un lien avec les légendes. Elle tente de donner l'alarme, mais personne ne veut la croire. Paul Gardener, un jeune journaliste avide de sujets à sensation, se décide à explorer cette piste.
Español Hay un asesino suelto por el campus que está convirtiendo en realidad leyendas urbanas, como la de que comer poprocks (peta-zetas) y beber cocacola a la vez hará explotar tu estómago o la del psicópata con un hacha que entra, cuando no miras, en el asiento trasero de tu coche al repostar en una gasolinera.
Pусский Тихий студенческий городок потрясла серия кровавых убийств, совершенных с беспрецендентной жестокостью. Полиция теряется в догадках, ведь между этими жестокими преступлениями нет ничего общего. Однако студентке Натали удалось обнаружить страшную связь. На первый взгляд, она кажется невероятной: в каждом убийстве оживают городские легенды, пугающие истории из современного фольклора, передаваемые из уст в уста. Ни преподователи, ни друзья не верят девушке… и становятся следующими жертвами таинственного убийцы.
Türkçe Köklü tarihi geçmişiyle tanınan New England’daki Pendleton Koleji’nde yavaş yavaş işlenmeye başlanan cinayetler tıpkı, “hep şöyle yaparsan başına böyle kötü şeyler gelir” türü hikayelerle bağlantılıdır. Bu cinayetleri işleyen kişi kampüsteki öğrencileri teker teker öldürmekte ve kimse katili bulamamaktadır. Her zaman anlatılan korku dolu hikayelerin birer birer gerçeğe dönüştüğü bir gerilim filmi.
svenska På sista tiden har Pendleton University i New England drabbats av en rad mycket märkliga dödsfall. Den självsäkra och vackra Natalie är säker på att en galen mördare går lös. En mördare, som väljer ut sina offer efter gamla sägner som spökar på stället. Men vännerna tror inte på henne. Först när Natalie upptäcker, vad som förbinder dödsfallen med varandra, går den ohyggliga sanningen upp för henne: Det är hon själv som är nästa offer.
Português Quando Natalie, uma estudante universitária, se encontra no meio de uma série de crimes sádicos, inspirados em mitos urbanos, resolve procurar a verdade mas rapidamente descobre que está na mira de um louco assassino.
Český Natalie, krásná a inteligentní studentka Pendletonské univerzity, a její přátelé Jared, Rebecca a Michael chodí pravidelně na hodiny k profesoru Wexlerovi. Na jedné hodině vypráví profesor dávnou městskou legendu o někdejším profesorovi z Pendletonu, který před 25 lety zabil šest svých studentů. Natalii připadá celý příběh podezřelý a je přesvědčena, že je vrah i nyní v prostorách univerzity. Nikdo jí nevěří. Až když je příliš pozdě a její přátelé se stanou jeden po druhém obětí vraha, přesně podle předlohy v městské legendě. Tehdy Natalie zjišťuje, že se spolu se svými přáteli stala součástí pokračování těchto strašných událostí…
Magyar Egy elhagyott egyetemi könyvtárszobában porosodik a Rémségek könyve. Az a könyv, amely felsorolja mindazokat a véres bűntényeket, amiket valaha amerikai egyetemeken elkövettek. Wexler professzor (Robert Englund) előadássorozatot szervez, hogy bebizonyítsa, hogy a véres legendák milyen nevetséges képtelenségek. Csakhogy egy sötét este egy diáklány szörnyű gyilkosság áldozatává válik, majd egy fiatal srácot találnak holtan. Az egészben az a legrémisztőbb, hogy minden haláleset megfelel egy fejezetnek a Rémségek könyvéből.
Dansk På USA's sikreste universitet begynder de studerende en efter en bogstavelig talt at tabe hovedet. Måske er der en naturlig forklaring eller er storbyens legender - vandrehistorierne - ved at blive til blodig virkelighed?
עִבְרִית סרט אימה חדש שהפך להצלחה מסחרית אדירה בארה"ב, למרות שמדובר בסרט ראשון של במאי ואין בו כוכבים. הסרט מתחיל כשסטודנטים בקולג' בניו אינגלנד מתחילים להרצח בסיטונות. נטלי חושדת שהרציחות מבוססות על אגדות אורבניות, שהרוצח משחזר. העלילה מסתבכת כאשר מסתבר כי לא כל כך בטוח אם כל המיתות היו אמיתיות, ומצד שני גם לא בטוח שהגיבורה תשרוד עד סוף הסרט.
Português Série de crimes inspirados em assassinatos do passado assolam uma localidade. Quando Natalie (Alicia Witt) investiga antigo crime, o assassinato de um aluno por professor psicopata, ela inadvertidamente entra na mira do maníaco homicida.
Polski Każdy zna opowieści o zabójcy, który czyha na swe ofiary w ich własnych domach, albo o szaleńcu z siekerą ukrytym na tylnym siedzeniu samochodu. Nie wiemy, skąd się wzięły, nie wiemy, kto je rozpowszechnia. Żyją własnym życiem i stykamy się z nimi na co dzień... Kiedy jednym z amerykańskich akademików wstrząsa seria tajemniczych zgonów, studentka Natalie (Alicia Witt) zaczyna podejrzewać, że ktoś wziął sobie poważnie do serca niesamowite opowieści i postanowił wprowadzić je w czyn. Koledzy Natalie, lojalna Brenda (Rebecca Gayheart - Krzyk 2), ambitny młody dziennikarz Paul (Jared Leto) i żartowniś Damon (Joshua Jackson) nie dają jej wiary twierdząc, że wszystkie wypadki są wynikiem zbiegów okoliczności. Kiedy Natalie za bardzo zbliży sie do poznania prawdy, przekona się, że może stać się następną ofiarą szaleńca...
български език След жестоката смърт на колегите си Мишел и Деймън, красивата студентка Натали подозира връзка между убийствата. Но дори нарастващия брой на труповете в колежа не е в състояние да убеди приятелите на Натали, че това е нещо повече от съвпадение. Пол, журналист в колежанския вестник, се интересува само от истории, които биха могли да му донесат наградата "Пулицър". Бренда е загрижена за Натали, но повече я вълнува флиртът й с Пол. Саша пък е увлечена единствено от сексуалния си живот с Паркър. Когато все пак Натали стига до истината за 30-годишната колежанска легенда за професор, който убива студентите си, тя разбира че се е превърнала в главен герой на съвременната версия на легендата, чиято следваща жертва е тя самата.
한국어/조선말 뉴 잉글랜드 펜들턴 대학에는 25년 전 어느 사이코 교수가 학생들을 대량 학살했다는 전설이 전해내려 온다. 또한 전설의 무대인 고딕풍 첨탑은 두터운 나무 판자로 봉쇄되어 있다. 인류학과의 웩슬러 교수는 그런 괴담은 도덕적 훈계를 암시한다고 주장한다. 그러나 불행하게도 괴담을 모방한 살인 사건이 발생하기 시작한다. 학생들이 죽어나가는 상황에서도 사람들은 단지 우연한 살인으로만 치부하고 모두들 다른 일에 정신이 팔려있다. 하지만 나탈리는 살인사건 간에 필연적인 연결고리가 있다고 생각하고 기사를 쓰려는 폴과 함께 살인자를 찾기 위해 전설을 파헤친다. 그러나 그녀는 살인마가 다름아닌 바로 자신의 사체를 원한다는 사실을 알게 된다.
Lietuvių Koledžo studentai mėgsta pasakoti legendą apie profesorių, kuris nužudė šešis studentus, o vėliau nusižudė pats. Ji prisimenama kiekvienais metais, kruvinos egzekucijos dieną... Netrukus mirtys ima kartotis. Žudikas gali būti ne tik, bet kuris dėstytojas, bet ir bet kuris studentas, prisidengęs mistine istorija. Tačiau studentė Natali turi savo versiją, kuria niekas netiki. Ji mano, kad žmogžudystės tiesiogiai susijusios su siaubo istorijomis, savotiška juodojo folkloro rūšimi. Šiurpą keliančias fantazijas, keliaujančias iš lūpų į lūpas mėgsta ir vaikai, ir suaugę. Kiekviena karta turi savo istorijų rinkinį, susijusį su tam tikra vietove ir laikmečiu. Tad nieko nuostabaus, kad universitete taip pat paplitusios kai kurios siaubo legendos, perduodamos iš lūpų į lūpas. Natali neabejoja, kad kruvinos žmogžudystės – tai siaubo folkloro pasakojimų realizacija.
Nederlands Natalie en haar vrienden volgen colleges folklore van Dr. Wexler. Wexler vertelt over verschillende 'urban legends', waaronder die van een psychotische professor, die 25 jaar geleden op de universiteit zes studenten vermoordde.
