Not what I expected - too predictable and too unscary!

Rating: 2/10 (28 November 2012)

An average score of around 7 is like a 10 in the Horror genre. I've come to known that within time. I don't completely rely on these scores and hardly ever agree on them but to me they're like a benchmark. It rarely happens that this benchmark is very far from what I'd give the movie. Rarely but not never.
I've just seen this film and I already can't think of what I liked about it. The story lacks character, I didn't feel like it was something new. The scares were hardly recognizable to me. What I hated most is the predictability. Not even halftime in I already knew how it would end. I want to be so much into the story that I don't think about such things. That didn't happen for me. The music in a film usually charms it,a film would be nothing without it as I always say but here it was just odd. I didn't like the effects to it.
I really tried to like Sinister but I just didn't. In comparison to other film ratings I can't give it just 1 so I'll make it a 2.
