This is the 4th Horrorfest movie I have seen so far and I must say I was disappointed. This could have been a GREAT movie. They had a great story going and some frightening parts.

SPOILERS AHEAD:::CAUTION

For those who have seen it...I think what made the movie so retarted is the fact that the 3 ghosts looked so zombish. There faces just made me laugh almost rather than being scared. Many parts would have been a little freaky if it wasnt for there dumbass faces. Example early in the movie when the wife was in bed and the woman was next to her in a chair with her head down. That freaked me out until she lifted her face up and I saw her retarted face. Same with many of the scenes. Not to mention one of the dumbest endings Ive ever seen with a giant face and hand chasing after them. Basically what I wanted to say is they had a great idea and this could have been an outstanding movie but they made it almost Sci-Fi and if the ghosts would have actually looked like ghosts and not mindless zombies with huge ass eyes and mouth it would have been a good movie.

I actually thought they did a good job with the ghosts, but i guess this is where opinion comes into play. I thought they were freakish and scary, and one o fthe more effective parts of the movie; not to mention you couple their looks with the overall atmosphere of th emovie (especially the end) and i think they did a greta job overall

That was the first horrorfest movie i saw and it was my last movie. It was lame and the ending was so horrible that you had to laugh. To me, the best part of the movie was the creepy masks... Sure it looked fake but it was pretty creepy.

I enjoyed it, but i dont understand why so many reviews on IMDB said how pants-shittingly terrifying it was.... The WERE creepy, and the stills of the kira/axe-murderer from the end are godamn scary, but it just wasnt.....


I dont understand what made it so that it "couldnt bee shown in theaters"

I loved the ghosts as well. Not much else.


Thought the story was rather lame and the characters/actors were colorless and boring.


But the ghosts/demons... DAMN!!!! :cool:

I liked it. It was not particularly scary, but I thought it was entertaining. While I would certainly not add it to a list of great horror, I'd probably see it again.

I thought this movie had some pretty good elements to it,especially during the first half,however it seemed as though they ran out of ideas towards the end and just threw some lazy C.G.I together which just didn't fit with the rest of the movie.After some early promise I found this to be pretty disappointing.
