Saw it last night after reading rave reviews about how it was the scariest movie to date. Was disappointed greatly.

Like a lot of horror movies nowadays, it started out promising, then all of a sudden, 'OoOoOo, lady you have GHOSTS in your house and... they want your son!' Then at that point the movie, like most others that go this route, turn sour.

*Spoiler*

From that point, it goes from at least having a bit of mystery and potential to god-awful stupid. The main villain, so to speak, reminded me of a cirque de solei costume with the idiotic, 'I'm obviously just a guy with circus makeup on trying to look all crazy' expression on his face as he sat in his terror-realm making clown dolls of all things. Makes sense for a demon to spend his time making dolls in a realm cut off from time and space, right?

edit - Now, you could do a lot worse horror-wise, and I did appreciate the lack of sex and nudity, but don't expect to be intrigued or frightened by the movie unless you want the villain from Jeepers Creepers holding a boy's spirit hostage while trying to possess his body.
