It is very sad to realize that most of the viewers out there want films that are ... well, films that are the opposite of Wounds. I found this one near perfect and now I'm getting overprotective, so instead of 8 or 9, I'll award this film 10. For me it made perfect sense (not too much though; that would have meant I'm more clever than the film was, and I am in most of the cases) and the way dread is built up is quite unique. Arnie Hammer is top notch and the rest of the cast do a very decent job as well. The ending... sure, it's puzzling, but give it a thought and I think you'll be able to fill the void if you really try. One of my favourite flicks!
