Scary...

Rating: 7/10 (24 April 2011)

I went to go see this movie with a twelve year old friend of mine and as we walked into the theater, we missed about 5-10 minutes of it, so I don't know how to explain how it begun, but this movie was SCARY. Three children and a mom and dad and one child falls off a ladder and gets hurt. The night after, the parents try to wake him up at breakfast and he didn't wake up, so they took him to the hospital, three months later... and they were regarding the boy. Suddenly, their family experience demons and stuff which appear to be the spirit of the child and then the mom plans to move. They have these people come in and try to figure out what's wrong and most people are afraid of the demons coming out of him and I didn't understand this until the lady came up and explained why the kid was sleeping for a long period of time. The family try their best to get the child out of his own world and get him back on Earth so that he could wake up, so they had the dad sleep to get him back.
When I went into the theater to watch a movie about astro-projection, me and my friend were scared to death. It was scarier than Poltergiest. I mean, what? Like a sleeping film of Poltergiest? Well, yeah, I also thought it had a reference to Inception too, you know, the new movie. Yeah, both of these create new worlds.
Personally, at the beginning, I found it to be kind of cliché, but then I got over it and enjoyed it a lot. The acting was superb, the script had enough details to even scare adults and the storyline was just.
But, I'd be darned, I wouldn't recommend this film for anyone under 14. It would be too scary and kids would have nightmares. I hope I don't. There are very little comedy and mostly serious moments of the family trying to wake the kid up.
