I have to disagree with everyone who says the Angels aren’t as frightening as they used to be. I just think what makes them frightening has changed.
It’s true they’re so familiar now that they don’t have the strangeness that made them so effective in their first appearance. However, I thought the concept of the battery farm was a brilliant one and showed the Angels can still be used in frightening new ways. It’s frightening in a more oppressive, disturbing sense, whereas Blink was more suspenseful and toyed with the viewer’s perception. It’s a different sort of horror but still effective.
The Statue of Liberty was completely idiotic though.
