Admirable film.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

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

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

This was a good movie and I really enjoyed it and I don't get the hate for this film at all. I thought the movie was effectively creepy and atmospheric and very suspenseful. The movie had me on the edge of my seat the whole way through and I was very entertained Through most of the movie. I don't understand how anyone can say this is a bad film.I can admit its not a great film but its Not bad either, its definitely not as bad as everyone is making it out to be that's for sure!. The movie is about a girl called Lucy who moves into a new house with her husband and baby and everything starts out okay but one day the girl starts seeing Dark mysterious figures as well as people who are supposed to be dead and at first she thinks she's imaging things but when her husband starts seeing these Ghosts too she knows she can't be imaging it since they can both see the same things and they start to believe maybe their house is haunted.People just don't like the film because it tried to do so something Different with its Ending. The movie tried to be different and i guess that bugged people but I personally enjoyed the change. To me this is how you do a horror movie the right way.The movie had a lot of tension and suspense in it And I really felt bad for the main two characters and their baby because of all the horrifying things they kept on seeing. I thought The Acting from Cristin Milioti was very good! And I'm surprised not many people have praised her performance Because I thought she was Great! and I found her Captivating at times especially during the scenes when she screamed and showed fear, she was very convincing and she looked genuinely Terrified.she gives an underrated Performance in my opinion.I also thought Michael Rady gave a good performance as her boyfriend Wade. The Acting is definitely one of the good things about the movie. The second thing is definitely the creepy moody atmosphere the movie has. Another thing I liked was the music that's played throughout the movie, it gives the movie a Haunted feel and it was a good choice of music.I have to mention I'm surprised some reviewers got annoyed with the lead Ladies behaviour and they didn't like how she's freaking out and acting crazy half way through the movie???. The woman is seeing Ghosts! every hour in her house! So of course she's going to freak out! Wouldn't YOU freak out if YOU started seeing ghosts in YOUR house? I Bet money you would!.so i think its dumb for people to get annoyed with the woman for freaking out.What do you expect her to do stay calm and smile???. There are ghosts in her house! and that's NOT something a person can be calm about, I hate to Break it to you.By the synopsis on IMDb you may not think the movie sounds like much but I thought The Twist at the end of the movie was very good and I did not see it coming.This movie probably has one of the most underrated twists in movie history. I'm really surprised people did not think the twist was clever because I sure did.I will admit I've seen Twists similar to the one in this movie in other movies but I thought in this movie it was done in a clever and unique way and I was totally surprised by it.Even if people don't like the movie I think they should at least praise its Twist Ending. There was a mystery to the story too which I found interesting. I also thought the writing and directing were good and I never got bored by the film, it held my attention all the way through and it was probably the suspense atmosphere and likable characters that helped.Overall I'd Recommend watching the movie I found it very chilling and Mind bending.

It is no secret that I do enjoy the horror genre, and often sit down to watch just about anything that falls within this genre. And when I happened to find "The Occupants", I must admit that I was initially lured in by the movie cover/poster, because it did seem like it could have potential as a slasher movie. Little did I know that this was actually a supernatural ghost movie.However, I didn't manage to make it more than 35 minutes into this movie before I tossed the towel in the ring. I did so out of what can best be described as utter and complete boredom. From what I managed to sit through, I was nowhere near being entertained or being impressed. And I can honestly say that I have no intention of returning to finish the rest of the movie.The characters in the movie were one-dimensional and rigid, which didn't really help the movie one bit. And the dialogue wasn't particularly thrilling either."The Occupants" had the level of acting which was to be expected from a movie of this sort, for better or worse.If you enjoy horror movies, then there are far better choices available. I can't really think of a single reason for recommending that you actually take the time or the effort to sit through this ordeal of a movie.

There is not much to be said about this film. It's not the worst out there but it's near the bottom of the barrel. I wouldn't recommend it. It is about a woman called Clare who has a new husband and baby and they are living in a new house. She is a social worker and seems to have a fulfilling job and a perfect family life. Her husband has a nightmare about a beaten woman, and then Clare starts seeing her as well as two other apparitions in the house. The house then becomes haunted by them, I.e. The Occupants. Clare tries getting help from her colleague and ex-lover Glenn. He doesn't believe her. Her and her husband then research the history of the house trying to find out if anyone was murdered there. She calls a psychic who feels no presence in the house. She tries getting help from her babysitter who tells her about demons. Things get worse and we find out that Clare was adopted after her father killed her mother and sister. These are in fact the apparitions she has been seeing. She also doesn't have a husband as she imagined him and her child's father is in fact her ex who has been spying on her in order to get her evidence of this and help her. She kills him and then herself. The baby is placed in the care of Clare's sister. The End. Overall an unimaginative film with a weak story and mediocre acting. The first twenty minutes is bearable as we don't yet know what is going on, but then the movie drags out to its uninspired and predictable ending. It tries to mix psychological and supernatural horror and ends up being ineffective and bland instead. Don't waste your time on this, rather watch Insidious, Sinister, The Conjuring, Paranormal Activity or The Others. Each of them is better than the occupants.

I was really excited by the beginning of this film. It was obviously a low budget effort but it was well directed. The casting was excellent, and most of the performances were as well. I personally find Cristin Milioti captivating, ever since seeing her play Johnny Sac's daughter on The Sopranos.The story was wonderfully creepy for the first half. Unfortunately as it dragged on it started getting cluttered with half-developed ideas that teased but never really delivered.It'll be interesting to see what this director does next. He showed enough here to warrant a second chance. Hopefully it'll be better developed.
