Sinister

D: Ladies and Gentle kids! We welcome you to our theater of horrors. This week we bring you a movie of terror, fear, dread, and...hold on let me check my thesaurus...ah! Fright!! We bring you fresh from the theater, Sinister.
A tale of a family who moves into a house where grisly murders took place (tell me something new). The father, a writer is looking for a story, comes across a box filled with old home movies that reveal a most disturbing and gruesome horror. One that will shake his very being and place him and his family in a never ending curse.
Ok, got the jest of it? Alrighty then. now my thoughts. Ahem...I thought this movie was excellent. Yes, yes, the moving into a house were people got murdered is so cliche it makes you think yawn. Been there seen that. But as the movie goes on you learn more and more about the family, the murders that took place, and even when to just say...done! And as things take a more and more sinister turn for the worse (pun intended), you are wondering up till the end 'how the far-fignewton is this going to get resolved'? This movie has it all. Creepy kids, a demon guy, ugly murders, and yes..loud music that make you jump. So I would recommend it. In fact go see it. And if there are teeny boppers there, you will get a good laugh! Cause they jump at anything. Ha! Look at that one! She is hiding her face...you can't hide from him sweety, he is right behind you...BOO!


N: You really want to know what the scary part of this movie is?  Its the similarity between the writer Ellision (played by Ethan Hawk) and myself. I as well tend to get so caught up in my work...locking myself away in the office like Ellison we keep pouring the whisky. Neglect the ones we love and become so obsessive with our work until we are thrown into a hysterical nightmare that turns us against everyone.Though I have been caught in my own hunting's it has not been as bad as what I had just seen in this movie. But enough about my personal reflections. Lets get dive further into the blood soaked horror. Lets settle in. Find a comfortable seat. Make sure you've got your popcorn and be prepared to be confronted the ghostly undead and a masked stranger that is pulling all of the strings. The obsessive writer Ellison stumbles upon another gritty murder story that he must solve in order to reclaim his lost fame as a true crime writer. Thus, after Ellison and his family move into a house once owned by a family that had been murdered he discovers movie reels that  reveal ghastly murders and as he continues to watch the footage connecting the dots; the sinister ghosts rise from the depths to attack Ellison. Yet in the end the true murder is invalid and once again history repeats itself. Shoot I hope I did not give it away. Though I do hope I painted a welcoming picture for you and enticed you to watch this flick.
