Nope."Run, little piggies." Kids with a desire to be on a reality show awaken in a warehouse realizing they were drugged, the mechanically altered voice of a hideously facially scarred sicko tells them that the rules of his game --with a prize to the victor who is able to face their worst fear--consist of successfully completing a task that endangers them (the game seemingly without much hope of surviving) as every chosen member walk aimlessly throughout the building trying to find an exit. Booby-trapped rooms await each teen, most perishing horribly (bomb inside body goes off splattering victim all over a glass window, shot guns wired blasting a victim when hot lights cause his skin to sizzle and blindness leading to a trip of the trigger, twins having to decide which one will take a drill to the forehead, etc), as detectives try to find the whereabouts of the psychopath behind the deadly game. Sound familiar? Pathetic rip of the Saw franchise, made on very low budget, performed poorly by a pretty but annoying cast who swear a lot. Kariem Marbury, as token black brotha, Jason, is so atrocious you'll yearn for him to be put out of our misery and thankfully is. Alethea Kutscher, as daddy-hating final girl, Kelly, gets the lead honors, perhaps only a survivor due to her relationship with the burn-faced antagonist. The film plays on Kelly's worst fear all the way to the end. Mostly shot in one singular occasion, sometimes retreating to the detectives as to give us momentary breaks, the movie keeps the characters roaming about with no clear direction on how to escape. Because "Are You Scared?" doesn't even try to break from its inspiration in any way creatively, the movie feels like a direct retread of a franchise that has yielded too many "deadly games" rip-offs to begin with. Really, the only real difference is the inspiration for why the killer is behind the elaborate death traps, but even that is so corny it will probably elicit more eye-rolling that applause.

I give this movie a 10 out of 10 best comedy of the year! This movie is funny, a laughable tale of trial and triumph against all odds. A tale of a movie that wants to be saw, yet fails horribly, with some intense character development such as that one guy did that one thing, and that other person died. The characters in this film are unforgettable, just thinking of the chemistry between that blond guy and that other person brings a tear to my eye right now. Also, the plot twists are unforgettable, such as that one person died, I never would have called that! All around, this a wonderful movie that deserves the academy award for the best picture ever in the history of all things. Go and watch this riveting movie, better than Citizen Kane.

I have to admit, when it comes to movies of the b-grade variety, I consider myself somewhat of a connoisseur. However, after watching this horrible steaming pile of monkey crap, I can only ask two questions. "How?" As in, "how in the hell did anybody ever decide that this movie was worth committing to celluloid in the first place?" and "Why?" as in, "Why in the hell did I just waste my valuable time in watching this?" Of course, if you don't believe me, just watch some of this laughable "film" and judge for yourself. Marvel in absolute wonder as a camera is ripped off of it's mounting and the television screen responds with a DVD header (like the ones you see when you first turn on your DVD player). Laugh in awe as some of the worst acting of all time barrages you with a steady stream of dialogue that ranges from terrible to....I can't even describe how bad it truly was. Gawk, as "characters" such as our token black go from being a scared pussy one second, to a street tough who thinks everything is funny (even though he woke up with a gaping wound in his chest).Plus, it leaves me with one final thought.The "father" in this movie set up this elaborate plot, full of complicated traps and other assorted nonsense. Why did he do this, you may be asking yourself? Why, to get revenge on his ex-wife and daughter of course. And just how did he know that the daughter was even going to request to be on this show in the first place? It truly makes the head spin, even hurt if you think about it too long.If you watch this for free, you have still been ripped off.Saw was by no means a great movie. It had its flaws, like most movies do. However, compared to this, it was Oscar worthy. Do yourself a favor and skip this one, no matter what anybody promises you in return.

Now being a film student I have seen many many many films and know that some movies need to be given a chance. This one though is the first movie I gave a chance to and still was not able to make it past the first 15 minutes. It was horrible. Saw is very hard to imitate so only the professionals should do so. This director is a hack. Never make a horror movie again, for the sake of us all. This is the WORST MOVIE EVER! I have some done some cheesy horror shorts myself and they were done on no budget, and only as a class exercise. That film is even better then Are you Scared? I am disappointed by this ...... well first off its not even a film. It is video, but that aside it is not worthy to be called a film. Burn it now before anymore have to suffer.
