"A true crime novelist discovers a box of mysterious, disturbing home movies that plunge his family into a nightmarish experience."
Well, the first try in seeing this movie was a bomb. I did wanted to see it, it's on my must see list, but the weather got to the theater and shut off their electricity! Oddly enough another friend of mine in California got to see it and the power there went off too. We only stepped in front of the doors and well, got told to turn around since there was no power. So, we decided to try it again today and wha-laa! Anyways, the story goes a bit slow and talkative in the beginning, yet that's a good sign to most movies. It gradually built up from time to time and I found myself grabbed onto it as well. If you love mystery mixed with horror/suspense movies or genres, then this is the movie for you. There is no gore scenes shown directly, only the blurred out version of it will be. I was drawn to it, as in I caught myself asking some of the same questions the main character had during his investigations. Some scenes were jumpy, but you collected yourself quickly from them. The whole plot was growing in every minute and many questions were brought up as well. Ethan Hawke played his father and novelist role very well to the point in it all being realistic and making it all seem like the movie was based on true events, but we all know its not. So if you like Paranormal Activity and Insidious, then like I said...this is the movie for you! 5 out of 5 is my rate for this movie! Unexpected ending or endings, great acting, great growing suspense, some good comedy...yes you heard right and if you need more convincing... check out this article I found about this movie on E! online. But bewared with that link... SPOILER ALERTS!! Thanks and enjoy!
