Thoughts;
Ok, I admit that I do look at the movies on IMDB before or while watching, I do read the user reviews but don’t ever judge the movie by this. This movie deserved the low scores it was given. This movie was not great.

It had potential, the “spooky house” which is on the market for a low price. It’s big, it’s old and it’s spooky. Well, all of these things have what could be a great scary movie. This movie, however was not. There were a few parts where I thought it would get good, it didn’t. The only back story you get is at the very beginning of the movie, and even then, it isn’t really a back story. You also don’t get what happens in the end. The movie ends the same way it started, with the house for sale. Ok, fine and dandy but what about the realtor? The last family that lived there, their stuff. I mean the entire movie is about the family that is currently living there and what is happening to them, but where did they go?


Confusing and not scary at all. I was disappointed.
