The Gallows
20 years after a horrific accident during a small town school play, students at the school resurrect the failed show in a misguided attempt to honor the anniversary of the tragedy - but soon discover that some things are better left alone.
Critics Sentiment
Ryan's leg broken by unseen force and Cassidy gets rope burns
Ryan Shoos devises plan to vandalize set and sabotage play
The film drops significantly during Ryan's obnoxious character introduction then recovers somewhat when supernatural elements begin.
The Gallows starts with a decent premise but quickly deteriorates due to unlikeable characters, particularly the insufferable Ryan. The film shows modest improvement during its supernatural middle section with some effective scares, but crashes again with a widely criticized nonsensical ending twist.
