Terrible movie. I have a hard time thinking of one that was worse. No redeeming qualities whatsoever with this "movie". What took me most off guard was that it was heavily advertised, so obviously it was a big budget flick. Then I saw the Terrible movie. I have a hard time thinking of one that was worse. No redeeming qualities whatsoever with this "movie". What took me most off guard was that it was heavily advertised, so obviously it was a big budget flick. Then I saw the movie, and I almost thought I had picked up the wrong thing, seeing as how it was as B movie as you get. Don't even bother watching this one once, it sucks horribly.… Expand

I desperately wanted to give this film a rating of 1 but in order to do that I have to be able to come up with a redeeming factor that would warrant such an award but this Amityville/Poltergeist wannabe was so devoid of anything even I desperately wanted to give this film a rating of 1 but in order to do that I have to be able to come up with a redeeming factor that would warrant such an award but this Amityville/Poltergeist wannabe was so devoid of anything even remotely original that it gets a big fat Greek zero from me (see what I did there John Corbett, I'm so funny).… Expand

Painfully slow and predictable storyline, meaning no real plot. Seen-it-before people crawling on ceilings. Some of the worst acting and directing as well. Can't believe I got suckered in by the trailer. That's what I get for not Painfully slow and predictable storyline, meaning no real plot. Seen-it-before people crawling on ceilings.

Holy crap, JoJo. Are you serious? "Not for the faint of heart"? Go watch some Cronenberg and tell me how you feel (I suggest starting with Videodrome). If you had a hard time stomaching this laughably tame trash, you might just throw up your Holy crap, JoJo. Are you serious? "Not for the faint of heart"?

Scary House? Check. Moody Teen? Check. Every other cliche' from every horror movie ever? Check. Yeah, take "The Amityville Horror", "The Birds", and "The Grudge", add crap, and blend them all together and then you get this movie. I only Scary House? Check. Moody Teen? Check.

One gets the sense that much of a decent script ended up on the cutting room floor; what got left in makes almost no sense, and certainly has nothing to do with the title (or even the previews).

Ye Gods! This was a terrible movie. Can some one tell me how I can get some of those super fast growing sunflowers? Kristen, call Jodie and see if she can get you a part in her next film.

A laughing stock. The only reason I could give this movie a 2 is because it was, at times, enjoyable to laugh at its stupidity. Even when I tried to be scared, I could not help but laugh. It is just such a dumb idea, plot and movies. How A laughing stock. The only reason I could give this movie a 2 is because it was, at times, enjoyable to laugh at its stupidity.

It looks like they never will be, thanks to this flop.… Expand

Kind-of funny when it was not trying to be, but NEVER really achieved scares with its kiddy PG13 scares that only a immature kid might find scary. Real horror buffs who wasted there time on this movie know the truth, and that is that this Kind-of funny when it was not trying to be, but NEVER really achieved scares with its kiddy PG13 scares that only a immature kid might find scary.

It is amazing that such a high-budget horror film can achieve such cheap scares with such bad and unrealistic acting. Not only that, but this movie is easily the most predictable horror movie of the last 15 years.

Just defeat or contempt fair ?, just what I can say about the movie "The Messengers" was so creepy but very boring , because a damn house is a symbol of horror movies , and the field gives me much more.

The visual effects and style are very nice to look at, the vast majority of shots are nice, the sound design is great. Overall very solid technical aspects. The story though is not every original, it’s a pretty standard ghost story. It’s notThe visual effects and style are very nice to look at, the vast majority of shots are nice, the sound design is great. Overall very solid technical aspects. The story though is not every original, it’s a pretty standard ghost story. It’s not very creative. There are some good scares and a very hot Kristen Stewart but ultimately lacking any special or any true horror.… Expand
