Very well executed

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

This is one of my all time favorite horror movies, I love the atmosphere and the slow burn...Problem is, its not for everyone. The movie does what I love - gives the viewer some credit. Everything isn't just spelled out in capital letters, but when you start to realize what is going on it becomes a truly creepy experience! Must see, IMO!

The movie is definitely not for the impatient, so if you need constant action then I wouldn't recommend this movie. However, for those of us who appreciate a "slow burn" this movie is perfect. This is easily one of my favorite horrors, without a doubt. This horror/thriller is unlike any other I have seen. It is genuinely creepy, and does not rely on jump scares like the rest of them. This movie gets in your head, it buries itself in your imagination long after the credits roll. Don't be confused by my label as a slow burn, as it definitely keeps you intrigued the whole time. However it is paced perfectly where the climax occurs at the optimal point. I finished watching this and I was at a loss for words. I did not expect this movie to be so great. This is a true psychological thriller/horror, and fans of the genre will not be disappointed!

Biggest key of movie is that the crew were cleaning asbestos (dangerous substance what can affect hallucinations and serious illness) hospital and probably Gordon ( a person slipping into insanity) was infected (we can see his ill leg in the van) and started freak out more and more every day. Also we can compare Gordon with Mary. Probably he has same personal disorder and same alters like her, that is why he digging eyes to his victims (Mary's second alter "Billy" believe that he lives in the eyes, we can see note of Mike's tape analysis that this alter is very protective to Mary"s first alter "Princess"). Gordons second alter tries to protect him when Phile started doubt in the Gordon's behaving (Phile mention to Mike that Gordon hit his own wife and that he can be dangerous for their job). Gordon was mourning for what he did to his wife (his first alter miss the family just like the Mary's "Princess"). Mary's third alter "Simon" killed the Peter on the Chrismas ("22 years ago") when Peter frightened her and she felt on her new doll and injured herself. In my opinion, Gordon's wife tried to move away dangerous Gordon from their newborn child, he tried to come back but his wife didn't want it,so he killed her. Maybe he somehow accidentally killed his child (we can see Gordon in Mary's room, watching photos on the wall and crying for his child just like Mary cried for a doll). Simon lives in "week and wounded" just like injured Mary and hurt feeling Gordon. Silver coins may present protection from evil like from vampires or evil alters.

I went through some "What's the creepiest film you've ever seen?" thread on IMDb, and a lot of people mentioned Session 9, so I was very curious about it. The plot seemed interesting enough and the movie poster looked creepy, so I had rather high expectations on this one. And I have to say: I don't agree with all the positive reviews at all, except for one thing: Most horror flicks nowadays only have a lot of blood and jump scares (which I also like, to be honest) and there are only few movies that scare you on a subtle, psychological level. And, according to the reviews, Session 9 should be one of those films. But it is not, in my opinion. Not at all.There is hardly any build up of tension during the first hour of the film, only a few moments. And don't get me wrong, I AM a fan of movies with a slow build up, but this one was just boring. The characters were not very believable, although the makers tried to make them deep, but failed in my opinion. There are quite a few things going on, so you have to keep attention and get curious how everything will solve in the end. So it is kinda interesting for about half an hour. But then, the story becomes extremely predictable. It is a very cookie-cutter type of horror/thriller story and has no interesting or fresh aspects. I also didn't like the fact that the whole "action" went on in the last 10 minutes. It seemed very hesitated. Too much dialogue that could have been left out since it didn't make the characters any more credible, and too many different things going on that could also haven been left out since they didn't really tie together in the end (or at least didn't ad much to the story).Last but not least, the film lacked of atmosphere. If I watch a horror film without the typical jump scare stuff, I expect it to have dense atmosphere that chills you to the bone, and Session 9 failed to deliver such atmosphere. The only thing I thought was creepy was the old wheel chair from the movie poster.
