A horror film at last thats actually scary

Rating: 9/10 (28 March 2010)

When this film came out at cinemas i ignored it based on the fact that it seemed a bit simple and thought that these films are never scary, i don't believe in ghosts and if i was caught in a house with one i wouldn't run scared becoz they're only ever a bit of wind that could never cause you any harm. Anyway i rented it and i am so glad that i did. ITS BRILL. I've said Scream is my favourite film of all time but this film is scarier, esp if you let yourself an inch to believe that there are things we still don't have control over, that can't be seen but are there all the same. I'm not very easily scared but some of the stuff is genuinely frightening (i'm 22 and i've seen loads of horrors and never flinch) and it nearly made me want to pull up behind my duvet. The originality and imaginative dialogue from the two main actors gives it even more of a realistic feeling, particularly the guy, micah, who behaved just how you wouldn't expect in a horror film, he confronted the spirit, didn't take it seriously and when the spirit was seemingly in their presence stepped up and confronted the damn thing. Very cool. Must watch for all horror enthusiasts.
