just saw the trailers. not that scary. but when i went to the movies with my friends, i went to go see another movie while the other group went to see this movie. when i met up with my friends, they told me the movie was so scary and unexpected.


what are your thoughts?

I heard this was scary as f*ck. People in the screening had to get up and leave. I sort of want to see it. laugh.gif
Mikeplyts
Yeah, I'm hyped for it too. I haven't seen a scary movie in a while, and I sorta dig the ones that involve ghosts, demons, etc. like that. tongue.gif

The trailer scared me. lol I can not wait to see this. I'm for sure going to see it in theaters.

it may not hit theaters, & it probably shouldn't. most of the "hype" concerning this movie is entirely invented by the studio. but, i did go to a screening in chicago & i did see a few satisfied people. however, ultimately, i don't feel my theater (700+ people) was particularly impressed. the film moved from some very creepy & interesting staging or ideas, but ultimately fails in its execution: the acting is poor, the pacing is horrible, the film lends itself to corniness & absurdity. nonetheless, it's not that scary @ all.

if you want to support a feature murdered by the studio... go buy trick r treat on dvd or bluray, it's far more entertaining & even, in some ways, "scarier."

I just bought trick r treat. I don't expect much but still think it'll be good.

Actually, Paranormal Activity is going to play nationwide now because it hit like 1000 demands or something like that. :P

My brother showed me the trailer on youtube, I admit, I jumped alittle. Still, horror films for me equals sick.gif

My friend saw it and said that it was kind of boring at the beginning but the ending was scary. _unsure.gif Still want to see it.

saw it, wasn't that great for me. i only got scarred at the ending. i don't think it's scary, it was just freaky.

Haha, yeah. I was scared just because my guy friends were creeping me out. I laughed a lot throughout the movie. It was predictable and it was only good towards the end. Everyone in the theater was around my age and most of them were satisfied.. ermm.gif

LOL my friend and I thought her leg was gonna get chopped off when she started to get dragged off the bed. Who else thought that too? XD.gif

I want to watch the trailer right not but I refuse to because its late and I'm alone.

My friends went to the midnight showing of it and said it was not scary at all and a total waste of time. I don't think I'm going to go see it.
rnicron
i saw it when it was on its limited release. i liked it but i wouldn't say it was scary. it had its parts with freakiness, but its just like any other movie.
creole
^LOLLOLLOL, i know right.

my friend got so scarred by this movie. the whole time, he actually thought it was REAL AND TRUE documentary. he ran out the movie screaming like a poonani he is.
fameONE
This movie was horrible. I want my $10.50 back.
candycandin
i aint gonna lie.. i went to see it in the theater last friday, it really was a disappoinment. It wasnt scary at all... just some things moving around and jumping out... other than that it kinda sucked. It was a good movie for a $7000 budget, believe me i give them props for that. i just dont believe it was voted scariest movie.
creole
For a low budget movie, it attracted many people. :/
JackRapington
I screamed.

hey Beenly!,

you should add a Poll to this topic.

i saw it on my iPhone. haha yea, downloaded it the day it came out and i saw it on there...

pretty cool, but not very scary.
synatribe
The movie was not worth it, I think I was over analyzing due to the hype everyone built up. I never found any part of the movie to be scary, just a little bizarre.
Amaranthus
I was scared, but that's partly due to the fact that the other people made me nervous, and I'm a bit overdramatic.
