Go back to the exorcism part.... wat?

I'm so very mad that my theater isn't getting this movie.

Means I'll have to pay to see it. Damn it.



That's intense.

Do you even read the posts that you respond to?

Went into Seattle and watched this tonight.

Awesome. Takes a bit to sink in, but the last 20 minutes had my jaw wide open. I was astounded by the reality of the situation.

If you're into horror movies, even a little bit, go see this. It's a landmark of horror films.

EDIT: It is now 4:15. I am watching a rip of Runaway Jury to pass the time. I can't sleep. I sincerely cannot. The reviews of the film invariably mention this phenomena. I went to bed around 1:30, Lead Salad can attest to this. But after getting into bed, I realized something.

I was fucking terrified. My palms were sweaty. I was consistently reluctant to raise my head from my pillow, for fear of what I might witness. It's this damn movie's fault. I don't want to spur the inevitable hype machine. I really don't. Blair Witch fell victim to the process years ago. But guys. See this movie. Then message me at 3:30 when you wake up and don't want to keep trying to sleep.

See, that's the kicker of the whole film. The most terrifying segments of the movie catch the focal couple in their dreaming hours, with things going bump in the night with increasingly alarming antics. We're vulnerable in our sleep. If something's lurking where it ought not to, there's nothing you can do about it. You're left at the cruel mercy of whatever forces surround your slumbering hide. A door opens and closes on it's own. A shadow lingers a bit too long on the doorframe. The daylight hours expose the intricacies of both the couple's relationship, and the depth of their predicament.

Once you get the sense for the film's format (daytime hours, night-time scene) you will come to dread the night scenes. Not because they're boring or underwhelming, because they're not. These are the most genuinely frightening, fear-inducing scenes dedicated to wide-release film in recent memory.

While you're settling into the theater, remember why you go to see horror movies. Open yourself to the experience, and you will be going all the more insane when the clinchers hit. If you close yourself, your fear will only be postponed. It's powerful.

When I was watching the movie I wasn't really scared at all. (Considering there were people yelling and clapping, I couldn't really get into it) But that night was pretty creepy. It's kind of strange how that was Micah's first and last film... O.o

LOL
