disgusting, overrated, pointless

Better Late Then Never

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I LOVE this movie the only reason its rated R is because of how scary it is, the first time I watched this i had to hold on to my bed to keep myself from jumping.I HIGHLY recommended this

The storyline of this movie is awesome! I don't know how it doesn't have a 10/10 rating! This movie is very scary in parts and is just overall a very good movie.

James Wan and his colleagues staff managed to make this movie unique among other horror movie. I believe if any member in this movie could be replaced then it would get different degree of excitement from audience (possibly less than what this movie got!). It is expected paranormal based story but done with unique style, there wasn't a rely on sex, gore, and long unnecessary dialogues to (fill-up!!) the movie but it is a pure build-up and into the point sequence of events. There are two paranormal investigators in 1970's who help a family with their haunted house.. very easy and expected plot but yet enjoyable to watch.. why is that?... is it the pacing, is it the suspense, or is it camera handling, or other factors.. maybe all of them!!.. I have to say the ending came little off for me, so that might affected the rating!!This movie deserves watching for horror fans and extremely suggested for non-horror fans who want to be introduced properly to the genre!

Based on a true story, the film opens with an incident in which Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine (Vera Farmiga) Warren explain the difference between ghosts and demonic possession, both being similar to owning cats. Ed has a room full of artifacts that would make "Riley's Believe it or Not" museum green with envy. Hey don't touch the monkey!Meanwhile the Perron family has moved into a house in Harrisville, RI, in 1971 BF (before flashlights). They discover their basement door has been boarded over, because God knows spirits can't pass through wood. The Perron family has a pack of screaming daughters, just right for a horror flick.Needless to say the plot and subplot come together with wonderfully horrific results. Like most films the creepiness builds to a climax. This particular film has some minor religious overtones to it as one would expect with an exorcism type production. Good film to watch in the dark. Take the kids. Zombie soundtrack.Parental Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity. WARNING: Does use the word "groovy" and "The Brady Bunch" is on TV in the background.
