Product Description

Desperately in need of a best seller to revive his struggling career, true crime writer Ellison (Ethan Hawke), moves his family to the scene of his most recent story; the unsolved, gruesome murder of a loving, happy suburban family.

Shunned by the local community and strained by his obligations to his family, the discovery of a batch of home movies in the attic offers Ellison shocking proof to the crime he is investigating and the terrifying realisation that his investigation may be putting his family in mortal danger.

Format:DVD
I went to see this film at the cinema with a friend. There was a group of rowdy teens at the back, all talking and laughing loudly. Within 10 minutes of the film starting, the whole room was silent.
That is the genius of this film-it is so intense, you will be on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Using a combination of well timed jump-scares, brutal and horrifying 'found' footage and an eerie soundtrack, this film is a triumph and I would highly recommend it to any person into their ghost films.

HOWEVER
I would strongly advise that no one buy this film for their teenage children. This should be an 18. The film deals with a lot of extreme topics, and the found footage certainly wanders into the realms of 'bad taste', graphically showing various horrific murders, with extreme realism. Even for me, a hardened Zombie/Horror film connoisseur, this was almost too much, so I would definitely advise against buying this for a 15/16 year old.

It is still an excellent film due to the realism and tenseness throughout, 5 stars would highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars By far the best horror Ive seen for a while. 2 Feb 2013
Format:Blu-ray
This film is about a family who move into a house where it has a terrifying past, the father is a writer and wants to report on the unexplained mystery of a child who went missing and the rest of the family being brutally murdered.
When moving in he discovers an old projector with films of brutal murders and starts to research into the truth of what is really been happening but the truth is far more sinister than he realises.
This is not your ordinary mind numbing horror this film has depth and keeps you on the edge of the seat throughout, people may think yeah same old story family move into house, strange things happen bla bla bla, this film has so much more that that and has a great twist.
I love this film it has everything a horror needs and without a doubt would be in my top ten horror films ever seen.

Scott Derrickson has to be one of the best horror movie director's around today. Why? Because he understands the meaning of the word "restraint". Read more
