Sinister is a dish best described creepy.

Rating: 8/10 (2 June 2015)

Without spoiling I can say that this movie surprised me, because I thought I knew how it was going to be, but it wasn't that way. I love being wrong in those cases. Anyway, this is a creepy ass movie!
Damn! I watched it alone, at night, as I do with pretty much all movies I watch, at least horror. And you know what? A couple of times I looked behind my back, just to check I was alone. That's not something I often do. The atmosphere is very creepy in this little flick. There are some sound effects that can really chill ya! Chilled me, anyway.
Without giving high hopes I can say it is one of the very, very few horror movies that kind of scared me a little. Which I just love. And it impresses me, because movie wise I do not scare easily. (Not saying that to sound cool and tough, although I am those things)
Ethan Hawke does a great job, some of his reaction shots are excellent, and really ups the scary. You can read some trivia on that here on IMDb, after you have watched this little gem.
I liked this one very much, it's up there with Insidious, and a couple of others. This blessed new wave of creepy, well made horror movies. Huzzah!
