Disappointed - 2nd Half of Movie Seemed Like an afterthought

Rating: 6/10 (19 April 2011)

I might get some flack about this but I have to say I was really disappointed with the second half of the movie. I couldn't wait to see this movie, the trailer (always showing the best A mix between Paranormal Activity and Drag Me To Hell The beginning of the movie - great, I loved it. Real suspense albeit the musical cues warned me what was about to happen.
But the second half flopped; it was almost like they got another writer, that's how different it was.
Gas mask? It started to decline quickly after that. I started to laugh - she look so funny in it. The Further? - more like those haunted houses you see around Halloween with paid actors. The zombies reaching out to claim their "victim?" Silly. Hey, how about those paper mache "chains" (here son, let me just rip them apart without any effort!) Fog machine smoke - c'mon. There's more to rant about but I'll stop.
The ending - very cool. It was the old lady who was communicating to the medium. What was written on the tablet by specs was exactly what Josh (old lady) said at the end of the movie. In the end (as I see it) Josh becomes possessed!
