I don't want my money back, but would have been better on DVD

Rating: 6/10 (15 October 2009)

I had a couple of issues with the film. 1. One point docked for being similar to the Blair Witch Project. I realize BWP was 10 years ago and it is a good time to get a new 18-30 crowd a fauxumentary scare, but the concept cant get bonus points as a lot of comments are suggesting. 2. I full disagree with most comments about the performances. The girl being so "scared" never shed a tear. There was a key semi-closeup where she was sitting on the bed and appeared to be crying. Her eyes were dry and then she started wiping. Also, she wore a bra constantly. No girl wears a bra to bed in a cohabitative relationship. The male lead also wasn't genuinely callous, brave, concerned, or vulnerable. If I saw what he saw on screen, I would be either really scared and showing false bravado, or outwardly confrontational. 3. there were a lot of scenes filmed by the couple during this ordeal that were unnecessary. like sitting at the kitchen counter discussing nothing. at least BWP seemed like edited reels of "found" footage. There was no other reason for these scenes other than to bridge the paranormal scenes.
With all that said, the creepy scenes are creepy. Especially the scenes of objects being moved by invisible forces.
I think it would be much more fun/scarier watching it next Halloween, with all the lights off, in your own house, with your significant other. No need to see it in the theatre
