It was interesting seeing Kirstin Stewart in another role since it was the first i heard she had done other movies other than twilight but as you would expect with horror movies it was half predictable.

Ghost stories are hard to get right and when they are they are special. There's something about Kristen Stewart she manages to succeed in the two genres that are hardest to pull off. Might be a bit of a Freudian slip in that last sentence.

A fairly decent but not great ghost story that tries to be different but it trips over its own logic towards the end. A family moves to a farmhouse and as soon as they unpack the daughther and yougest son are seeing and are attacked by angry ghosts. The acting is strong by a stella cast but the direction takes a bad turn towards the end and goes for the shining which wasnt the best move as it contrdicts earlier plot points. The effects are passible but look a lot like the Grudge. It ends well but this good but not great film is def worth a look.

I wanted to see this because of Kristen. Nothing overly interesting, basically a haunted house.

Actually pretty darn good for this genre. Good suspense, a few good scares. Dont really like Kristen Stewart but she did a good job. A great all round suspense-horror, got a few good jumps.

If you love thrillers based on spiritual deaths, then this movie is one for you, the story is good as is the acting.

This movie was pretty weak. While it did have its moments, i thought it was a bit of a let down overall. I thought there was too many questions left unanswered and thought it was too rushed. The end was a bit of an anti-climax and could have been much better. Just another haunted house movie you've seen all before.

Great Movie, one the better Horror movies I have seen in a while. Kristen Stewart was a surprise as the troubled teen. Different to what I was expecting but still a great movie all the same. Thought it to be more Thriller then Horror movie, though the soundtrack definately set the atmosphere for the movie.

Wow, was expecting another stupid B grade horror, but this one really scared me. Good scares and jumps all the way through. Nice twist as well. And I can't believe how they got the little boy to do all the stuff he did. what a top toddler, made it even more believable and scary.

Kristen Stewart offered a great performance as a trouble teen with a dark secret. She has an uneasy, dark and mysterious but beautiful mood about her. The settings, imagery and symbolism fitted perfectly with the themes of the movie shown through the contrasts between innocence of children, beauty of flowers, menace of black crows and pending evil of a old dark farm house. The sound quality was great and had that ability to scare you without even looking at the screen (my fav feature of a horror/thriller). Recommendation: If you liked the Reaping, the Grudge or Beneath.

A good ghost story without being over the top and the acting was good as well. We enjoyed it. Definitely worth watching if you like the supernatural.

Thought this movie was along the same lines as Signs but was totally different. Keeps you sitting on the edge of your seat wondering what is going to happen next. A Must See movie for the fans of horror movies. One of the better ones I have seen.
