it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
The film itself is good, story, actors, it was scary of course etc... But I was disappointed with ending, I don't like films with bad endings where Evil wins against Peace. Maybe someone will tell me that it's only my personal problem, but I watch film for the ending, good ending. So if you are the type of person like me, don't watch the film.
This movie was so disturbing I can't even watch it again!!! With the scenes of the tapes to the curse, Mr. Boogie is probably more scary than the Nun. It's the thought of how terrible it would be if those tapes were real. Every tape just seemed too real for me. I give it a 6/10 because I can't watch it again EVER. I'm being serious I may only watch it again if my friend coincidentally has the movie.
Its rare for a horror movie to impress me, and this one simply shines with the perfect blend of horror, mystery, thriller and really invests one into the life of a true crime writer's life. Amazing performance by Ethan Hawk he always impresses and much credit goes to Scott Derrickson for the writing, definitely top notch for a horror movie. It consists of genuine scares throughout and executed perfectly. And what works about all this is that its all kept as grounded as possible. The end however wasn't that grounded which makes one think that it could have been better but its acceptable considering the plot was eventually gonna go that path. Still a lot better than most horror flicks,Verdict: Definitely worth checking out.
Sinister was a very interesting film I love the plot and premise of the film. I bought this film recently cause I love the cover for the DVD and thank god I did. The movie was very original and the cast were good. There is one part that I did not like it when the boy is inside the box and starts yelling that was a let down and typical. Also I don't see why people are saying its a extremely scary film it not just because of the cheap jump scares gimmick well anything that jumps at you when your not looking is scary. Overall I love this film and it is a film worth re watching a lot.
