Surprisingly good

Rating: 9/10 (23 January 2014)

I'm not a big fan of horror in general, I can basically take it or leave it. I've seen the majority of the major horror films of the last 30 years and didn't expect this to be anything special. Boy was I wrong, every aspect of this film hits the mark, great use of sound, cinematography, great build up of tension, wonderful acting. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Most of the people giving it a 1 are either hating on it because they expected gore and special effects galore, or, and this one kills me, took offence at the religious nature of possession. I can't even begin to describe the irony and general lack of awareness needed to make that argument, but suffice to say, if you enjoy horror and have half a brain, this will not disappoint.
