Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
haleyriley97 This movie is not groundbreaking, but in a time of repetitious stories/plots, this movie is a little refreshing. Don't get me wrong, it still relies heavily on jump scares and other predictable tropes. However, I found the humor and occasional well acted scenes are what kept me interested. Plus, there is some really nice camera work that makes it seem like the team that made this movie actually cared. It's a great movie for a movie night with a group of friends or alone. I can't even tell you how many times I've rewatched this movie. It's not trying to win any awards, just entertain you. So give it a try and have fun with it!
MJB784 As a horror movie, it had some scares, but as a story, it wasn't that surprising. Though it is based on a true story and I love haunted house movies, these kinds of films have lost their surprise. It seemed like a cross between Insidious (directed by James Wan also) and Sinister. Insidious also dealt with demonic possession (in fact, one old lady that was also a ghost in Conjuring looked like the same one in Insidious) and Sinister, which also deals with demonic possession, features the characters moving into a house that was previously haunted already and those that enter are in danger. So basically, there weren't many surprises, but I wish we knew more about the ghosts. We don't know the names of these demons or where they came from (other than Hell) and some of the ghosts appear in one scene and have nothing to do with the movie. As a horror fan, it does have scares, but I think they should have a new approach to the haunted house genre. I still say The Others was the best of the haunted house movies (though I haven't seen Amityville Horror). Overall, I guess if you haven't seen the two horror movies I've mentioned, it would be scarier. So I'm on the fence with this one.
alexfcm They did a really good job! You really start to care for the family. The staging was really good. Absolutely loved Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson's performance they nail it as paranormal investigators. I think the child actors we're one of the best on the set they did a really good job screaming and being beyond scared. We must not forget the camera angels that make you look (or look away) out instead of the charactors watching out for themselves, i think it was really effective. James Wan did a really good job in this movie! I recommend this movie if you want to get a good spook. It's also great to see with friends if you don't dare to see this alone.
chrisw-17947 Horror is my favorite movie genre, and this film has terrifying moments, excellent film editing, amazing acting. James Wan's movies never disappoint.
