i dont get with the hate on my soul to take i enjoy this movie it had cool kills a coll story and a good twist at the ending the acting was good but i felt like the story was a little messy at some points in the movie but it was a good movie.

Poor, poor souls. My soul to take is a complete mess of a horror film. Is a really poor horror feature that fails to establish interesting ideas and characters. The film fails to deliver any sort of atmosphere and just comes across as overly edgy and trying too hard to seem dark. The protagonist is not captivating, just like his personification. The deaths are boring and don't give any emotion. And, if a slasher film has insignificant deaths, the film becomes discarded to any viewer. This doesn't seem like Wes's work, because there isn't that hand that only he knows how to deal. And in this film his touch doesn't seem to be present. As incredible as it may seem, there is no actor that I can single out because they were all dragged down the hill with the detestable characters they were cast as. One of Wes's worst works.

The concept isn't bad, but it isn't executed well in any aspect.

I love and miss Wes Craven but this felt film student caliber to me.

From horror master Wes Craven, a serial killer thought to be dead returns to kill a group of high school kids who share the same birthday as the day he supposedly died. Even for Wes Craven this is a stretch story wise. The cast is pretty good and the movie itself is very watchable. But a bit too much to suspend belief in, in order for this movie to be more memorable.

I liked this film but —— How did Dr. Blake deliver Bug when we saw him get shot in the head during the opening scene?!

This movie was a total let down. I think it was wes's worse movie. On the previews it looked great but they showed all the good parts in the previews. It was a slasher movie a poor one but still a slasher film

Come on, scream 3 was worse.

This movie is solid. The characters are believable, it is clear which "souls" are in which of the teens. The dialogue does sound believable for teenagers. I'll admit the jump scares are predictable at some points but overall every character acts in an understandable manner for the trope they are. The final reveal of the killer is a shock because of how well they build up the "who done it" aspect until it's spelled out step by step.

Sad end to a legendary carrier. The film is effective enough but has none of the creativity Craven was known for in his younger days.

Compared to most new horror films, it pretty good

I still cannot believe this is a Wes Craven film. Such a disappointment on so many levels. Just pretend it doesn't exist so Cravens legacy is upheld with dignity

enjoyable movie but very very awful at times

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

its really creepy/scary and its one of my favorite movies❤

A low point in the career of Wes Craven, My Soul to Take is full of horror movie clichés and belongs on the Sc-Fi channel.

had a good idea, but didn't know where to go with it...

Wes craven movies has always been favorites of mine, 16 years later kids were born on the day they killed the man who was possessed known by the river. Now these 7 teens are now going to find out the real horror of the storys they heard.

While watching "My Soul to Take," I could not help but think how much the film reminded me of a Wes Craven movie. Familiar touchstones of his films are evident: the resurrected boogeyman out to avenge his death by murdering a town's teenagers (A Nightmare on Elm Street), who, by force of habit, employs cell phones to toy with his victims just prior to slaying them (Scream). So, I was not terribly startled upon seeing Craven credited as the director following the film's conclusion. Although, it's a stretch to imagine this being one of the movies he shall be remembered for. Rather it seems to me like a project green-lighted only because of the writer-director's cachet. The story itself is a half-baked idea that movie studios, large and small, have churned out ad nauseam. Really, seven kids born the same night in small-town USA? Oh, and lest I overlook Craven's "Mean Girls" homage, since one scene inside of the high school ladies' restroom felt like it had been lifted straight from that movie. These characters are flimsily drawn. Case in point, the several cryptic references to the main character's damaged past, but little in the way of explanation for what he had been involved with that was so scarring. Then, there is the high school jock / rapist-in-training - hard to elicit sympathy for that guy when he finds his life in peril. Other cliched characters litter the hallways of this high school as well - the rich blonde who every guy in school notices, the nerdy Asian kid not gifted with swift running ability, and the brooding girl who makes a fashion statement wearing only black, and can claim as her own, the none-too-subtle nickname, Fang. Complete with an unbelievably lazy ending that left me asking, "What was that?," "My Soul to Take" is a colossal mess that all involved will likely wish to have stricken from their filmographies.

So bizarre, otherworldly. Even bad Wes Craven is so delightfully imaginative, or at least intriguing.
