Creepy

Rating: 8/10 (13 February 2014)

Yes, I'm an Ethan Hawke fan so of course I'm going to love his movies, but I have to say, this was one creepy film. The only thing annoying about it is that a good bit of the film is in one room; where Ellison writes his true crime novels. It's not an extraordinary storyline, but I found the reels of film Ellison discovers in the attic disturbing. I'm glad they didn't get too graphic with the murder scenes although the family hanging in the tree was horrifying. Of course we do see how each of the crimes were committed which is creepy enough in itself. I thought it was interesting that whenever he was making noise in the house, like when he fell from the attic, no one else in the house heard any of the noise. In any case, we never find out who the creepy guy is, but we do know the children are possessed and are sadly killing their own families. There wasn't much of a storyline on the rest of the roles as they were only a fraction of what the story is about anyway; at least until the end. I liked it, but cannot watch it alone! The music is just as eerie as the film itself.
