One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

The Wyrick family moves into an abandoned house in Georgia where their young daughter Heidi starts seeing the spirit of a man she calls Mr. Gordy, who is quite friendly and non-threatening, but invisible to her parents. She also sees two other spirits, one also non-threatening, but the other a sinister hooded presence that only Heidi can see, but still makes its presence known in a hurtful physical way, and it seems Heidi has the gift of spirit sight that may be more like a curse... Second of two specials that led to the TV series isn't quite as good as Connecticut, but is still interesting, and case had been profiled earlier on "Unsolved Mysteries", to shorter but better effect.

This is a bad film. We know we have re-enactments and the real people who experience this as talking heads. But, what the film does is repeat scenes to extend the length of the film so to get sold or something. They just show the scenes over to take the place of actual filming. The film follows reality shows like Ghost Adventures to show actual paranormal phenomena. The filmmakers use re-enactments to show the audience what happened to the family at that time. By using what seems to be the actual people the story comes off as weak. The cut aways to lightning and clouds moving fast just emphasizes the cheapness that this movie was made. It seems to have been made in the '80s but finally edited and put together and sold/released in 2002. Someone must have forgotten about this film, remembered it then put it together. This is a cheat. Don't watch it unless it's free.

this feature length documentary on an alleged real life haunting has it eerie moments to be sure,but the whole thing just doesn't quite add up for me.there are some positive things about it though.the music,for one.it's suitable eerie,to say the least.and once again,the narration of Tony Call(The F.B.I. Files)is is a perfect fit for this type of documentary.a few things bothered me though.for instance,when the family members were being interviewed about the events,they didn't come across to me as being completely sincere or genuine.and as another reviewer commented,why would the family stay in the house after all they had been through?apparently they are still living there and still experiencing activity.to me,that doesn't make sense.which is why is i use the word alleged.for a much better documentary dealing with a real life horror,i would recommend A Haunting In Connecticut,which is much more believable and terrifying.A Haunting in Georgia has its moments,just not that many,and there are too many inconsistencies. 6/10

I was very intrigued by this documentary. I have tried to watch it every time that it is shown. There is something about the Mr. Gordy character that has just stuck with me.The dark figure gave me true chills. I understand there point of staying there. They believed that the specters might follow them. But can you imagine having to live with these specters and more coming at you around every corner you turn. I imagine they are living in there own nightmare. But this was a very well filmed documentary. The family was right to turn to the help of the lord. If this is true as they say then they are greatly serving the lord by trying to help the lost souls to finally rest in peace as they should. The children have had to grow up and learn courage in ways most of us may never know. But I greatly respect these people for conquering these trials as a family like the lord asks us to do. That is so nice to see a family stay close through trials like this. I commend these people and the one's that brought this story to the public.
