Title: Just watched Sinister
Post by: Stefano on January 04, 2013, 09:32:16 PM
Warning spoilers ahead

Interesting movie but I was expecting more. It wasnt AS creepy as most people described it as. The pagan diety was kinda goofy with that wwe kane mask thingy that was supposed to be his face.  Ending sets up the Possible sequel for mr boogie. Some scenes were unneccessary like the dead kids who appeared unseen to ethan but not the audience. That made it a bit corny.

Another after movie moment was when i was discussing the movie with my creeped out girl. She rememebered that the daughter had asked the mother how to make the dads  coffee somewhere in the beginning  of the movie. At the end of the movie the coffee thqt ethan drank was drugged so the lil brat had been getting ready all that time.

My question is how did the kids or at least the daughter get exposed to mr boogies pic? Ethan and his wife insisted on not exposing their kids to ethans work. His office was locked..presumably. Only way she couldve seen it is if she had somehow gotten into his office and seen the printout of the movie still on his board.

Anybody else checked out the movie?

It was okay, but definitely seen better. It just seemed like it ended, meaning there was no build up to the ending. You are watching it and it just ends.

Overall I liked the film, agree with the previous points made but it was a decent horror film better than alot of the shit they put out and call horror.
It scared the shit out of our lass but women are fucking dumb.

I was hoping for a non-supernatural explanation.  For awhile I thought each murder was being done by the family's kid with the convincing/ help of the grown missing child from the prior killing.  But they fooled me and it turned out it was actually a magical boogyman all along.

How the fuck did the kids commit the murders in the first place? In the "extended" reel we see the little ginger girl coming behind the tree... so she hanged four members of her family up there and created an elaborate mechanism which would lift them when she finished hacking through that fucking heavy branch? LOL, how did the little girl saw through a tree branch many times her size?


The guitarist from Slipknot must have bestowed her with supernatural abilities, LOL

Yes insidious is a bit better, although still derivative. Everything has been done in the genre I think, there's not much room for invention.

the secret to a good horror is something that makes you squirm

something abhorrent to the real nature of mankind

something that makes you uncomfortable in your psyche

I'll find out shortly. Lawless is also on the list

way overrated, whoever finds this stuff scary must be about 5 years old and a girl.
Insidious is also way overrated and darth maul makes an appearance in that one too

  Lawless was good too     waiting on gangster squad next

Insidious is a remake of a jap flick I think. Cant remember the plot except Darth Maul with a long tounge haunting someone.

Sinister was really good in the beginning but I agree that it kind of lost its tension right about when you learn the killer is actually the silly percussionist from Slipknot.

Orphan is pretty good .. But maybe more of a thriller.

Yes, creepy as hell at first. The little ghost kids at the end were kinda goofy, though.

Oops, spoiler.
Title: Re: Just watched Sinister
Post by: The Ugly on January 06, 2013, 06:42:40 PM
Also, I don't get all the love for Insidious. I didn't dig it at all, and I love good horror. For me, the best in recent years have been The Descent, REC, and Paranormal Activity.

Interesting movie but I was expecting more.

Anybody else checked out the movie?



Yeah, I pulled out just at the end, boring as sh!t.

If you want to see a much better rig, try

The possession,
Dredd (2012) awesome, but flopped at box orifice ;-(
Savages
Priest
The Aparition
Time crimes
My bloody valentine
Mandingo (1975!)
Get the Gringo
The Hamiltons
The Thompsons (2012)

Saw Paranormal Activity 3 or 4, can' remember which. I thought it sucked ass honestly, long boring scenes and not much of an ending either.

Is the first one worth seeing?

I thought he was the Singer from Immortal :D

if you don't like one, then you won't like any of 'em. i thought the first was pretty decent for it's paltry budget. the second was ok for a sequel but is just more of the same. i thought the third was just fucking stupid. that was then... we recently watched the second film again and it was fucking mind-numbing.

i recall when watching the original, a strangely odd desire to want to protect the lead actress and kick the living fuck out of her fella more than any scares

How the fuck can you even mention POssesion. If you are talking about the new movie in 2012 it is a disaster. Sam Raimi can't make a decent movie now days.

But speaking of horrors, yap I've seen some Mandingo flicks. Terrified me :D

Just watched Paranormal activity 4. I literally fell asleep, no activity in my brain there..

Anyone seen this? Why is she running with a camera in her hands in the end?? Nonsense. Worse than the third easy.

Director Quentin Tarantino has cited Mandingo as one of only two instances "in the last twenty years [that] a major studio made a full-on, gigantic, big-budget exploitation movie", comparing it to Showgirls.
