Despite the supernatural element, it is written and directed with so much low key realism that it's almost not a horror film. There are scary (and gory) moments, but never played for cheap "made you jump" fright gags.
Transformers (1) was no great movie, but it was a fun special effects action flick. This sequel smells like a poorly conceived attempt to cash in on (1)\'s unexpected success. Oh, and lots of Megan–Fox–in–short–shorts shots, but not much acting.
