I stumbled upon this the other night while going through Prime. I was excited to see that it had receive a directors cut, thinking there would be more footage or at the very least some alternate scenes... well, to my surprise, it's nearly fifteen minutes less than the original cut and feels a little too jumpy. I've really enjoyed this movie since it came out back in 2008, but the original version is the one too watch.
The film itself is fun and quick, maybe a little stale by today's standards, we all know how much nostalgia plays apart in the movies we enjoy, but you could do far worse than this film. I would just recommend seeking out the original cut which would warrant a higher rating. Turn your mind off and enjoy.

Plot summary
It's the Winter of 2008, and television director Jake Tanner (Paul Wesley) is out of work. The reality show he was working on has been canceled, and his agent (Nestor Carbonell) just landed him a new job. This one on a show tracing the unlikely winning streak of a North Dakota high school hockey team. Jake arrives in White Plains and something seems...off. A local cheerleader (Leighton Meester) has had an "accident" that's left the town shaken. Jake also has to deal with high-maintenance celebrity Blanca Champion (Kaley Cuoco). She's there trying to bounce back her latest tabloid scandal and doing research for a movie role. But when cast and crew members start disappearing, Blanca proves to be the least of Jake's worries. The body count is piling up fast, but who could be responsible? The ex-convict from the backwoods? The short-fused hockey coach? The cheerleader's boyfriend? Jake kicks into overdrive to stop the killer and keep him and his crew alive. This all-new Director's Cut has been completely overhauled for 2021.

Watch the original cut.
A must
Fun throw back to the late 70's-80's horror flicks. Funny & scary. It was fun watching some great actors in early roles and I thought the directors cut was a great improvement from the original. It's worth a bag of popcorn, a Twizzler and a large Icy!
Did we all watch the same movie?
Honestly, I came here to see if someone could explain to me what happened. I feel like...I missed something. It was an ok movie...great beginning and then slowly fell apart. Could have been really good, but it fell flat unfortunately.
