Best movie of this year hands down!

Good movie but grossly overrated

Did you people see the same film I saw?

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.

Very few movies are done as well as Shadow People! Great story, and the fact that it is believable instills fear. The story moves along at a good pace. You MUST watch this flick through the first set of credits in order to get the last jolt! I have friends who refuse to watch this movie due to fear of the dark! I loved it, and my skin crawls with just the thought of it! Great job & thank you!

Shadow People is the most terrifying film I have ever seen in my life. It is the most creepy, compelling and mind bending film I have ever seen in my life. Better than Paranormal Activity, The Conjuring, Sinister, Insidious and Dark Skies!!!Not only was it scary, it was incredibly well made. Normally what would have happened is a brilliant script was ruined by Hollywood stars and a high budget. But this wasn't an all star cast nor was it a high budget movie. It was made for one reason and one reason only; to scare the crap out of you. AND IT WORKED!Also; like many films it is based on a true story. Based is a loose word when it comes to movies. But this one really is real. The video talked about on YouTube IS actually there. I have not been able to watch it after seeing this movie nor have I been able to sleep in the dark or look at my shadow.It was genuinely terrifying. I was literally left shaking, sweating and crapping myself. It was utterly brilliant. All of you must watch this movie!!!To add to the scary element of the film; before watching look into REM and sleep paralysis. This is a terror guarantee.

I watched this last night with my boyfriend and we both really enjoyed it. It is quite like The Fourth Kind in a way...showing both "actual footage" mixed in with acting. I found the performances believable and the story line really interesting. The film isn't gory but is a bit creepy and makes you think. Not really sure why it's scoring so low...found it a really good watch and didn't lose interest at all throughout the film.It was one of those where you had to remind yourself that it wasn't actually real, although searching through a video upload site afterwards found a lot of real life similar experiences with the "shadow people". Definitely worth a watch.

This is a very solid little horror film that does a great job of combining mock-documentary footage and a straight narrative. Also, the filmmakers have seeded the film with subliminal word messages hidden in a few quick cuts and blurry images, which is kind of funny and amusing. It's individual words sprinkled through the film o spell out: NOW YOU WILL SEE THEM TOO!!! I really appreciate this little touch and would love to read or hear about this choice. I watched it on VOD, so now I'll have to pick up a copy of the DVD or blu-ray to see if they talk about this at all.I am a sucker for a good ghost story, and while this isn't "ghosts", it is creepy and made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end more than once. It also reminds me of my college days of staying up late and listening to Art Bell on his spooky AM radio talk show.If you like creepy, slow-burn horror you should defiantly give this a watch.
