Ya, I saw it. It was a pretty creepy movie...not as scary as I was hoping for, but still creeped me out when I went home to go to bed.
I'm planning on seeing this as soon as I have some time. Seems to be the new "Blair Witch" - tiny budget movie with a lot of buzz and a big marketing push resulting in a low-budget phenomenon.
I really like that they're placing it into the incredibly mundane and ordinary setting of a bedroom at night. This is where many of my personal freakouts have occurred. Night terrors, waking up from intense nightmares, being absolutely horrified as a child at night in bed. It's easy to lie in bed at night with insomnia and imagine the ghosts in the darkest corners of the room. It's ripe for the right kind of movie treatment.
So I'm interested in that take on it, but I don't want to go in expecting too much - but I am very curious to see this movie!
I saw it Hallowe'en night. I thought it had a lot of promise from seeing the commercials. What an utter piece of garbage! Not one jump-scare, over-rated effects, the whole thing reeked in my opinion. Heck, even the woman I was with was bored to tears with it. The only people screaming or freaked out were 16 year olds, or so it seemed. Nothing in it for adults, unless your a real chicken when it comes to scary movies. I thought The Blair Witch was a pile of dung, and this was only slightly better.
I'd love to know where they spent the 15,000 on the budget.... maybe the rental of the editing suite? *sigh*
But that's just my opinion. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Heck, at least wait until it leaves theatres and rent it.
Just watching the trailer for this film gave me a couple of sleepless nights. :O
I have it, but I need my USB back from me papi so I can move the movie to my PS3 (not gonna watch it on this tiny computer screen).
Skimming through it looked like nothing was happening at all, just people hanging around in some house. So either I don't have the real movie, or it's one scary a*s house!
I'll screenshot the opening and you guys can tell me if it's the same thing as the theater, it probably is.
1 minute. .
I am sure you have the real thing...that is pretty much what the movie is. I was not impressed.Quote:

Spoiler - The Beginning
And then it shows some lady driving in to her drive way, and then getting in to her crummy house. And it all looks like it was taken by a home made video camera.

This movie was absolutely garbo in my opinion. It's sooo completely boring.
If anyone wants a laugh, watch the alternative (actual) ending. It doesn't get any worse.
what's the alternative ending?
Oh, I seemed to have forgotten to mention that my dad was out working that night so my mom came in my room with a pillow and blanket, and just slept on my floor. lawl.
And yes, a lot of people are saying the movie was bad. It's about 50/50 good/bad, or so it seems.
If you want to be scared, call the police, and tell them someone is digging up graves and 'violating' the occupants. Then go and do that yourself. You'll be scared ****less. Trust me.
You cant say ****less for the record.
But got scared... at the fact that I wasted my money.
Well i managed it ;)Quote:

The girl is sitting on the side of the bed, rocking back and forth, all night. It becomes morning, she's still rocking back and forth.Quote:

Cops knock, come inside, check all the rooms, finally find the girl. Ask her who she is. Girl replies with "Is that you (forgot the dudes name)? And starts walking towards the cops.
Cops tell her to stay back because they will shoot, she doesn't stay back, they shoot, she dies.
The End.
You can probably find the alternative ending somewhere if you type it in Google.
That was the version I got, grr.Quote:

Verdict
It's a waste of money to own on DVD, so best rent it. Even though it seems to be a dull version of The Exorcism of Emily Rose, it does make you a bit scared to record your house at night. So may I suggest the sequel to this scary motion picture, The Notebook?
