Great modern horror film

Rating: 9/10 (8 July 2013)

I haven't done a review for a movie on IMDb before but I really felt like I should with this film just because it was so amazingly scary. I saw it last night with some friends. Sadly Sinister never came to Australia via cinema but on the TV it was still really scary. The opening scene for me although not much happened was just so disturbing and messed up. Watching though people slowly lift up from the ground to be hung is just such a strong point in the film. I found all the tapes that Ethan watched were really messed up. All the deaths were really disturbing but you couldn't stop watching them. This film had such a great. Story and used amazing techniques through camera angles and sound to show this story.
Spoiler alert I would love to give it 10 out of 10 but I really think that it could have gone a little but further with a few more jump scares and the final death could have been a bit more disturbing or at least shown. End of spoiler
But overall this was truly a great horror film. It's up there with my other scariest films list.
