Of course not. But I'm actually fascinated by the paint-by-numbers nature of some of the reviews. First you bemoan that it's (gasp!) derivative. What an insightful point. Who could have possibly guessed? Then you get upset that it (double gasp!) engages in standard horror film tropes and cliches. Wow! Give yourself a cigar. And to top it off, you actually worry about the moral. In a horror flick. Wait, this is not Citizen Kane? I've been duped! Hate to break this to you, but all that audiences care about is if it delivers some entertainment. They already assume it's going to be stupid, cliche-ridden, derivative. But is it entertaining? Read your whole review and you don't so much as say. But you do bore us with complaints about misogynism in a girl in distress horror movie. It's like a different language.
Anyway, just fyi, the film was made way back in 2010 when Lawrence was a struggling actress.

The cinematography and PG13 rating were good signs of what to expect… and yeah tank tops. Still I'll go on record saying that the promotion for HATES (!) was far less annoying than the one for the next American horror story season (how many clips/teasers 21 ? 22 ?). So yeah I don't really understand all these articles and all the sneering either. Ah I guess now Kevin can say "Toldya so" !

No other site I know posted more crappy clips and music videos and more. Surprised you didn't give it a good review to not make yourselves looks like idiots for hyping it up so much.
