Nice effects though.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

I always believe that how a film starts sets the scene for how it will continue
actors starting off poor and to be fair they got no better at all
I seriously felt my amateur dramatic skills would have been better than those in this film. A young girl returns to her childhood area and reminisces about the good times she had and people she knew – but I felt no passion or care for any of them – even with the paranormal activity it could not captivate my concentration and I started to do other things in the living room like reading as it got so tideous waiting for something exciting to happen. Special effects? Ermm
did not see much of that either
.setting was unspooky and music was garden centre style
the only good thing about it was that there was no excessive violence or graphic blood scenes that really get annoying after a while. Disappointing!!! This is unoriginal and could be seen as hilarious compared to quality movies such as poltergeist, paranormal activity, exorcist etc

What appears to have happened is that in 2007 Miley Cyrus suddenly gained 40 pounds and was checked into the Comrie weight loss ranch under the assumed name of Rissa Walters. Prior to taking off the weight she made a movie with assorted members of the Comrie family; it was intended as the first of a series of "around" the house films featuring the Sarah Landon character. But Miley was able to lose the weight and she left the ranch to go back to being Hannah Montana again.There's something student film charming about "Sarah Landon and the Paranormal Hour," which features some of the worst acting and "acting for the camera" direction that you are likely to find anywhere since that long series of Japanese "Godzilla" films back in the 60's. Still it's not a horrible script and the suspense is laid back enough for it to be suitable for young children and for nursing home residents with heart conditions. So it does have a target audience.In her movie, Miley becomes embroiled in a family feud when she visits the small town home of the grandmother of her best friend, after the friend has been killed by a drunk driver. It's all about revenge from beyond the grave as a Hulk Hogan look-alike demonstrates that there is someone who is actually a worse actor than the wrestler.Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.

In San Diego, Sarah Landon (Rissa Walters) is invited by her grandmother's friend Thelma Shaw (Jane Harris) to spend the weekend with her in Pine Valley, California. Sarah used to spend vacations there in her childhood with her deceased friend Megan, who died three months ago. While heading to Pine Valley Friday afternoon, the water pump of her car has troubles and the mechanic Carlos (Michael Silva) calls his assistant Matt Baker (Dan Comrie) to give a ride to her. Sarah knows Matt from her childhood and asks about his older brother David (Brian Comrie) and Carlos tells a sad story about their uncle, Ben Woods (Rusty Hanes), who used to brag about his only son Johnny (Rick Comrie) that was considered by him the best baseball player in the Valley. On his twenty-first birthday, Ben's sister Mary Ann Baker (Nicole Des Coteaux) decided to celebrate with Johnny but she had a car accident and the teenager died. Ben promises to kill David Baker on his twenty-first birthday and he dies on the day of Johnny's funeral. Along the years, Mary Ann becomes delusional and has a breakdown; during an argument of his mother with his father, David overhears the quarrel and becomes a hermit obsessed in occultism. On the next Monday it will be his anniversary and Sarah joins to Matt trying to save the life of David in the paranormal hour, when the spirits get stronger."Sarah Landon and the Paranormal Hour" has a supernatural story with good potential. Unfortunately the amateurish direction and the acting is not good, and this Comrie Family (Lisa, John, Brian, Dan, Rick and probably also the cat) movie becomes a disappointing supernatural soap opera. But there are movies worse than that

When i first heard about this movie, honestly i thought it sounded ridicullous. A PG scary movie i couldn't see how it'd be scary. but then i watched the trailer and i realized what the filmmakers were doing. they were making a scary movie for kids not a pg scary move for adults. i showed the trailer to my niece and she couldn't wait to see it. i took her and her friend (10 and 11) to see it and they loved it. it's scary but not too scary (i wasn't that scared but i can see why they were). this is a kind of movie they don't get a chance to see most of the time. it's not juvenile but it's obviously made for a younger audience in mind. it's got a good story, interestinng concepts discussed to make the kids engaged. the sarah landon character is adorbale and real and the girls liked the boys in it. this is not a movie i'd see again b/c it's not really for me - i;'m 35 and like artsy sundance stuff but i can see why they want to see it again. i hope this movie sticks around.
