If you go into this film determined not to be spooked think again, it is jumpier than insidious and makes you think things are in your own home more than paranormal activity. It is eerie and creepy for no real reason…yet there was actual screams in the cinema and certain members of the audience (mentioning no names) were hiding under their jackets…
It is an extremely slow starter…but captivating none the less. It also has a satisfactory if slightly predictable ending which most supernatural stories lack. It may be excused of trying to be too clever with certain juxtapositions and contrasts of opinions and colour but ignore this and some horrendous continuity errors, just sit back and be thrilled.
It is quite literally Harry Potter’s nightmare on acid. Definitely a must see for those who like a good ghost tale but be prepared to spooked. Don’t go if you don’t like dolls, monkeys or people dressed in black…
