The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

In San Diego, Sarah Landon (Rissa Walters) is invited by her grandmother's friend Thelma Shaw (Jane Harris) to spend the weekend with her in Pine Valley, California. Sarah used to spend vacations there in her childhood with her deceased friend Megan, who died three months ago. While heading to Pine Valley Friday afternoon, the water pump of her car has troubles and the mechanic Carlos (Michael Silva) calls his assistant Matt Baker (Dan Comrie) to give a ride to her. Sarah knows Matt from her childhood and asks about his older brother David (Brian Comrie) and Carlos tells a sad story about their uncle, Ben Woods (Rusty Hanes), who used to brag about his only son Johnny (Rick Comrie) that was considered by him the best baseball player in the Valley. On his twenty-first birthday, Ben's sister Mary Ann Baker (Nicole Des Coteaux) decided to celebrate with Johnny but she had a car accident and the teenager died. Ben promises to kill David Baker on his twenty-first birthday and he dies on the day of Johnny's funeral. Along the years, Mary Ann becomes delusional and has a breakdown; during an argument of his mother with his father, David overhears the quarrel and becomes a hermit obsessed in occultism. On the next Monday it will be his anniversary and Sarah joins to Matt trying to save the life of David in the paranormal hour, when the spirits get stronger."Sarah Landon and the Paranormal Hour" has a supernatural story with good potential. Unfortunately the amateurish direction and the acting is not good, and this Comrie Family (Lisa, John, Brian, Dan, Rick and probably also the cat) movie becomes a disappointing supernatural soap opera. But there are movies worse than that… My vote is five.Title (Brazil): Not Available

Laughably awful....I can't remember when I saw something so badly produced, directed, acted, etc. That the producer has money there is no doubt, but no class or brains. There is an awful rumor this entire family still lives together in the same house somewhere in San Diego. How creepy is that? I would say far more than the joke they produced here.Maybe the parents of these twisted and overgrown, "adolescents", should screen another movie of a more relative subject, "Failure To Launch". Just check it out.We can only hope the moron who is flushing his money down the toilet making crap like this will soon find something else to occupy his time.

Sarah Landon and the Paranormal Hour is a fun, suspenseful film appropriate for adults, teens, and older children. Where the movie shines is in its family-friendly approach to the genre. You won't find any blood and guts, profanity, or sex here, but that doesn't mean there is no content. More than a few suspenseful moments and a major twist at the end keep the viewer's attention. Kids and adults alike will find something to be spooked by here. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie doesn't match these high points. With the exception of Jane Harris, the acting is almost universally sub-par. While this is probably a result of the film's low budget, it must be noted that several important male roles in the film are played by members of the same family (often an ominous sign in a low budget film). These hunky actors have the Hollywood look, but need more acting practice before they're ready for the big time. The script is average. There are no clever lines of dialogue to be found, but it certainly isn't cringe-worthy. Perhaps some of the lines could have been adapted to better fit the weak acting capabilities of the cast, but time considerations probably prevented such changes. All in all, not a bad flick. Enjoy it at a kids' Halloween party or on family movie night.

I was looking for something to watch that wouldn't require too much thought, something quick and fun, nothing too complicated. When I saw the 3/10 rating on IMDb, I almost didn't watch the movie. In the end, I still did, and I'm glad I did. It was nothing special, but I wanted to be entertained, and that's exactly what the movie did. Nothing less, nothing more.As other people have mentioned, the movie is like a cross between Nancy Drew and a Goosebump episode. It's filmed cheaply, with unknown actors that don't deliver any ground-breaking performances, but the script is well put together and interesting. The intrigue is surprisingly captivating, and there are no slow parts, resulting in a fast-paced movie where you don't really have time to be bored or annoyed.The 'horror' parts of the movie are extremely cliché, and somewhat funny because they fail to surprise, but for younger kids this is just enough, more would be too much. Everything falls into place a bit too easily during the movie and the ending is ridiculous, but until that point the unfolding of the story is great, if kept in mind that this is a thriller/mystery for children. The ending supposes there will be a continuation, and I do hope so.It's fun to watch, just don't expect more than it is.
