I love this movie so much

the audience applauded

Just perfect...

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

The remains...as in all that remain is me left in suspended disbilef that I just wasted an hour and half of my life watching this recycled piece of garbage! Terrible acting, the dad is an idiot and the kids are brats which enables you to care at all about what happens to any of them. I'm not going to waste anymore of your time with this review so I will leave you with this...don't waste your time with this one. You want a good haunted house movie? Go watch The conjuring.

WORST WORST WORST so called 'horror' movie I have ever watched. Should have checked the rating before watching it. I wonder how did the director come out with the story line but the acting was just pure stupid. (Not like the acting sucks but the character that they had to act)I'm just here warning everyone not to watch this horrendous movie. Seriously it's just waste of your time.

So listen, the set design and style works and the basic premise is nothing special but it could work. The problem is there are many scenes that literally feel like the first take, as if actors are holding their script in their hands reading their lines out loud for the first time. It's rather painful at times and either they were short on time and could only do a couple takes, or the director needed a lot more experience directing actors. Some of the actors are in other projects and have performed much better so this really does fall onto director's responsibility. I don't recommend this movie.

Although this is a common theme in horror movies, I've seen it done very well many times. Unfortunately this was not one of them. It started out with potential, the kids bickering in the backseat amused me, especially the eye rolls. But this type of cheesy, over the top acting continued throughout the whole movie. If this had been a horror-comedy that would have been fine, but it was not.The other downfall to this film was how quickly we see the evil spirits. There was no suspenseful lead up. Just, Boom!, here you go. I can even overlook (at first) that the dad didn't think anything was up with a giant house, in decent condition, being sold so cheaply. After the first person (not the third) mentioned something about being surprised the house ever sold, I would have been jumping on Google. In Dad's defense he did keep getting overtaken by a spirit, and forgetting what he as doing, but to use this as the reason for everything just didn't work for me. It was really lazy writing. And as far as the realtor goes we never get an answer as to why she was bringing more people to this house, besides for the commission. Was she a minion of the evil spirit, was it part of her family and she felt like she needed to bring sacrifices?? Guess we'll never know. The only reason I'm giving this movie two stars, instead of one, is because there was some decent special effects. If you really enjoy evil house stories, you may want to give this one a watch, otherwise, I would say to skip it.
