Feeling like you seen this before

Very predictable movie. Scares and surprises come when you would normally expect them. The weird twisted figured in the movie is very much like the Grudge or Ring. Movie was ok, just no creativeness to it. You just feel like I think I have seen this movie before. I guess it is just hard to be new and original anymore.
What's great about it: Few Scares
What's not so great: Very predictable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Found it hard to sleep

The nineteen years old Catholic college girl Emily Rose dies a couple of days after being submitted to an exorcism carried out by her parish priest, Father Moore. Emily believed she was possessed by six demons, and although authorized by Emily and he parents, Father Moore is accused of negligent homicide, since he had suggested Emily to interrupt the use of medications for epilepsy. In order to avoid a scandal, the Archdiocese hires the successful, ambitious and agnostic lawyer Erin Bruner, and the prosecution assigns the religious prosecutor Ethan Thomas. Along the days, there is a battle between science and religion in the court. There are some very interesting scenes in this movie, that find ways to express things in subtle and creative ways without spelling them out. And an incredible performance by Jennifer Carpenter. This is not a full-blooded horror movie, but definitely one of the most unsettling, disturbing and thought-provoking dramas, seeing Emily possessed is terrifying. Highly recommended.
What's great about it: Frightening Film
What's not so great: some peoples on Internet are saying lack of extras, when this has Blu-Ray Live

Surprisingly good

I watched this disc today, and I have to say I thought it was very good! I think even Rob Zombie would acknowledge that nobody could match Carpenter's original, but this take on the Michael Myers story is very entertaining (if you have a strong stomach). Where as Carpenter went for suspense, Zombie has gone for an all out blood bath, and you can't help but get a smile on your face when "that" music kicks in. The 1978 original will always be king, but I think Zombie's film is well worth a look.
The picture quality on this disc is spotted on, as is the sound. Some good use of your rear speakers, and pounding bass!
I highly recommended!
What's great about it: Blu Ray and it's Interesting
What's not so great: Don't mistake this as sequel to Carpenter's Halloween II
I would recommend this to a friend!

Halloween never looked better than on this Blu-ray

The most classic of all time, John Carpenter and no idea what he was getting himself into when he decided to make this with him then time girlfriend/Producer Debra Hill.
Acting - Great debut from Jamie Lee Cutis, with her parents we all know she was destined to be a star. Tremendous appearance from Donald Pleasence. Also good supporting roles from P.J Soles and Nancy Loomis.
Story - Michael Myers escapes from a mental institution, one night he decides to go trick ot treating on Halloween but not after candy after 17 year old girls with a butcher knife.
John Carpenter has done some great work such as the fog, the thing, vampires but no one not even himself can beat the masterpiece that is Halloween
I would recommend this to a friend!
