Brilliant blows Blair Witch out of the water

Rating: 8/10 (28 December 2009)

Well what can i say about this film except OH MY GOD!!!! it was a casual Sunday afternoon when i saw the trailer for this film and immediately i was gripped by it, i have search for ages to find a horror film that will actually scare me to the point where i think twice about before i go to sleep. but this film ticked every one of my horror boxes. at first i thought it was going to go the way of Blair witch and basically be a lot of talk and no action but i was quickly mistaken. i love the actors who play the leading couple they just convince the audience that they are a really couple and all these events are really happening. the high light of this film for me has to be the bit where the demon basically drags Katie from the bed and down the hall, and this is the part that has stuck with me, the way she screams as she get dragged down the hall made shiver all over. I mean who wouldn't freak out if these events were happening to you. The films is slow in places but this just adds to the anticipation of the film, the slow bits are the bit you have to watch as this explains why these events are happening. I have also seen the alternative ending of this film and i think this is the ending which they should of kept, basically it show Katie standing over mika and then goes downstairs as she does in the original all of the sudden you hear the scream and mika running downstairs to find her, all of a sudden there is nothing and sudden you hear heavy foot steps coming up the stairs and suddenly the lifeless body of mika is thrown into the camera followed by a possessed Katie crouching over his body. sudden she looks into the camera and her face turns into a demon and bites the camera. well this is much better than the ending they have with her basically getting shot by gun happy cops!!!
So well done to this and i hear they have already lined up for a sequel so please invite me to the premiere so i can be the first to see it
