Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
TeenzTen An action-packed slog
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
greatchocolatefurby This film was just...bland. I really enjoy sifting through under-the-radar horror films, and sometimes I find gems, but this time I found a decaying piece of driftwood. The plot was not only stock, but executed poorly; there was no suspense, there were no scares, and it was so predictable and cookie-cutter that I found myself quoting the next few lines before they were actually said several times.Lindy Booth was nice to look at, as usual, but that's literally the only good thing I can say about this film. The credits were the best part. Save yourself an hour and a half of your life and skip this one; you won't regret it.
ichocolat This film is more of a thriller than an horror film, in my humble opinion. It is only horror in the fact that the dead is going around killing everyone he found in sight. But as far as horror film goes, this film didn't fall in the category.This film is slow, predictable (except for the ending in which the audience found out that there really was ghost), and a lot of talking.This film is about two property developers who wanted to develop a suburban in which the haunted firehouse is located. And of a lady who received a letter asking her to come and join the discussion in the town council.Things develop and they found themselves entwined in a 'mystery' and they have to act in order to 'survive'.No climax whatsoever, but this film does deliver in giving shills to the audience in some of the moments.And the soundtrack give good feel to the development of the story.A score of 3 for this film.
haroldspatrick I don't know if this movie was intended as a remake, but I couldn't help but notice that this movie reminds me a lot of the late 60's B movie called the Shuddered Room with Carol Lynnly and Gig Young. Location in New England, lighthouse, mysterious person hidden away, young woman comes back home after leaving as a child, parents dead, flashbacks, and an old person dying in a fire at the end with the ghost/ creature. Way too many similarities. This movie wasn't scary at all, and I was able to actually predict the ending due to my assumption that this was a remake of the Shuddered Room. The Shuddered Room is a rarely seen anymore, but its story line is much better and creepier.
BronzeKeilani26 There was NOT one intense moment to this film. Matter of fact, the actors weren't even scared! No pulse-gripping or jaw-dropping parts, no suspense, no shock, no yelling at the screen...no nothing. It was as suspenseful as watching a maggot squirm out of a rotten apple and as interesting as watching a stray cat dig through my garbage, seriously. I read somewhere where 2 ppl said this movie was a good watch, no sir. I had to keep stuffing my mouth to stay awake while everyone else dozed in & out of the film. The acting by James Thomas, who played opposite of Lindy most of the time, was so dry and bad that I actually felt sorry for the pretty red head actress, whom at least put up effort on some parts. Unfortunately though, her acting wasn't consistent, creative or powerful enough to carry the film. Lawrence Dane, who played Father Hendry, proved to be a professional actor and convincing. The acting by others & the storyline was dry & shabby for even television, and I don't know how to make it any clearer than that. Matter of fact, the synopsis I wrote is more interesting than the film itself. I hung in hoping it would kick into high gear somewhere down the line. It never did. And, the blood on the bodies came from long scratches. That's it, that's all folks. If you have a weak-stomach, this is not going to faze you. One huge plot hole was in the main plot. The killer ghost who ended up killing ppl w/ cat scratches..lol, claimed he was 'innocent' of any crime when he himself was murdered. That was suppose to be the clincher & his lame excuse for clawing a few ppl to death, which we don't get to see until someone finds them. Everyone living ends up sympathizing w/ him, "yet" everyone seemed to forget, once he's died he became a pain in the arse murderer!
