Hate this movie (may contain spoilers)

Demon Island is the story of college students on a scavenger hunt (see the film to discover what the hunt is about) in a remote island. Things turned horribly wrong when a pair discovered an ancient pinata and cracked it. In doing so they unleashed a terrible demon bent on killing humans in the most inhumane ways possible.

Sounds interesting? Not!

A pinata? Come on! The movie could be better if they turned it into a parody of horror flicks in the tradition of "Scary Movie" or teen flicks like "Not Another Teen Movie". A demon entrapped in a pinata is not the way to go. The acting is horrible, the effects are downright ugly, and the ending is not really my type of ending to a true horror movie.

If you like Nicholas Brendon (is that right?) or Jaime Pressly (correct me if I'm wrong), don't watch this movie - you'll only be disappointed. There's also some other familiar faces (like the guy who plays Harvey in Sabrina the Teenage witch, and the other guy who was killed while digging his secret stash). I don't know what possessed them to do this stupid movie in the first place. What are those filmmakers think they're doing? Great films could be made with low budgets, so why settle in such a dumb script?

The pinata was destroyed. Why not destroy the film as well?
