Big horror fan here! This was so scary, intensely creepy, and one of the most uniquely creative scary movies! To put in perspective - there were SEVERAL scenes where the entire theater gasped with reaction! That says a lot. I go to horror movies regularly and usually don't see those reactions. Every scene was so good!! I mean it. All the actors did a terrific job! Even my spouse who has HIGH expectations of horror movies even said "Wow that was so good!" The scenes with dead silence.....rather than the typical horror music loud buildup were intense for me at an even deeper level than most scary movies. First time I ALMOST.....ALMOST yelped out loud in a horror movie. The movie was very well done! In my opinion too - what makes a great movie are suprise twists and turns. After being so tense from fear the whole movie, it was nice to get some respite at the end with few brief moments of comedy! Even some people were clapping in the theater. A mix of horror, intense thriller, suspense, GOOD drama, mystery, but overall HORROR at a uniquely creepy level. The small handful of 1 star reviews make me laugh and I agree with the review from Claudia that those reviews are NOT being truthful! For example, if you didn't understand the symbolism, look it up! It was obvious to most people! And if you can't understand laughter in a horror movie then clearly you haven't seen great classics like Drag Me To Hell! It's almost like those people purposely went into the theater mad LOL! There's a REASON the overall status is an amazing 95% on Rotten Tomatoes!! Enough said! In addition, EVERY person I know who saw this thought it was very scary! Go enjoy it! :)

Amazing as can possibly be!!! So awesome!!

My GOD! Season 1 was fun but Season 2 was AWFUL!!!!! SOO many scenes of them shaking, crying and scared!!! How awful!! What were the makers thinking making Season 2??!!! So much suffering!

My husband and I are horror movie fanatics so after hearing the feedback we had to check it out. I admit when I first saw the trailer I thought it looked just "okay" but this movie was GREAT! And scary! Realistic interactions and I loved the ending! The concept was great, script was really good and acting was awesome! In my opinion this was brilliantly written and makes one question overall values and what to trust. Although I'm a horror fan I don't usually feel scared going to bed after a horror film but this I felt nervous going to bed after watching. Even in the non-scary moments where the characters were just talking was still entertaining to me because the dialogue was interesting. Not one boring moment for me! My husband doesn't scare easy but this movie had moments where I looked over at him and he was mouthing the F word at what just happened lol. The feeling and concept of loneliness both for people in the physical world and also possibly for spirits in the spirit world make this so unique and feel realistic. So many things about this that I find way more clever than other scary movies: 1) In "typical" scary movies I see just the reaction of fear in the characters. But this movie also displayed characters' true vulnerability at such a humble level which made them and their relationships believable. 2) In typical scary movies, the spirit world is usually something that is feared whereas in this movie it can be something one is longing for or even gets a high from. 3) I don't remember moments of intense music buildup like other scary movies that prepare you for a jump scare. In this movie the moment just happens! 4) Although the IMAGERY of the spirits is comparable to other scary movies, the CONCEPT of the spirits in the storyline makes them even more believable and perhaps why I had a hard time going to bed after this. 5) As a horror movie fanatic I am used to scary movies giving away things too much. This doesn't. Here's an example: Mia first gets possessed and stares to the right and points at the corner of the room. The person in the way slowwwwly turns around. In a typical scary movie we'd see what they're looking at and BOOM.....the jump scare sound! Not in this movie scene. We see nothing. Which makes us THINK, makes us actually use our creative brains on what it could possibly be. And that unknown is way scarier than just showing a random ghost. In other words....it messes with you! 5 stars and I plan on seeing it AGAIN in theatres!
