Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Sci-FiHorrorFan 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.

zoegraceli18 SPOILER! I discuss the rabbit in the hat. Hop away if you haven't seen this film!! The Occupants provided an interesting perspective on the ghost story sub-genre. I think the disappointment some viewers had was that they expected more of the same, more of the tropes and tricks that genre presents. I enjoyed the way it portrayed their daily life; which, unfortunately, is sometimes boring. So it sagged a bit in the middle, and we viewers are led into a false sense of complacency. The protagonist as murderer was the cleverest part, and I was genuinely surprised. The actress was excellent in the role, and very pretty. Most of the secondary characters were written flatly, and they end up being ghosts in my memory. I think I wanted more flash and color, more music, etc. But I also think this was a commentary on so many of these movies. They just don't have the impact that a monster or killer movie has, but they feel much more real. This movie felt very real, and that probably made it less cinematic. The ending was maybe too sudden and jarring, but if the purpose was to make you work to understand, it succeeded. I recommend it.

GL84 After moving into a new house, a woman and her husband find the place haunted by the violent tragedy of the former occupants of the house and try to stop those actions from happening to them and her new baby.This here is a really weak and overall bland thriller disguised as a horror film. The biggest issue with this one is the fact that the central premise is nothing to really get worked up over, and it shows in the reactions of the characters. The primary focus is one the shots of the woman losing her mind over the events that transpire, yet none of what happens early on in this is enough to warrant such actions to take place and even worse off, doing so with the rather bland happenings that this goes through being just so unnecessary and uninviting that the reactions to them are completely unrelated to the events portrayed. That these in turn lead into the film's main segment being a series of investigations into whatever happened to the previous owners is so boring and lifeless that after such a troubling opening it sucks the energy out of the movie from there with endless scenes of her going over documents and papers that fill up time so that it's just so hard to stay invested in the movie as a whole from there on. The main subplot about these scenes is the film's second biggest issue, the constant referrals to the counselor friend she thinks is taking advantage of her yet is the first person she goes to whenever there's a bump in the night or a weird flash-vision she has, and despite every attempt to the contrary to make us believe he's some sort of creepy psychopath, he comes off as calm and level-headed about the situation while she rants and raves like a maniac then turns the tables back on him saying he's the one trying to screw her around. This happens a good three or four times after a conversation saying that she'll have nothing to do with him, so this in fact becomes extremely troubling and confusing as to why this goes on. Since the film earlier made mention of the fact that the supernatural haunting actions were unwarranted of the extreme reactions taken, that in turn brings up the fact that the majority of the supernatural going on here is really not that scary and oftentimes just plain dull, with a few somewhat decent scares here including the appearance of a demonic face on the wall hidden behind a poster, the ghostly visions of women running around the house and the ominous threat of violence depicted towards the infant son which does have a hint of believability to it, yet whatever happens is then undone by the absolutely ridiculous finale that makes no sense and undermines the general plot of what came before it. These are really enough problems to lower this one significantly.Rated R: Violence, Language, children-in-jeopardy and a shadowy sex scene.

mojoguzzi-879-68498 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.
