Exploring Sinister

[@Micsma]

I went to an early screening of this movie when I lived in Sacramento. I blinked during the lawnmower scene. Right as the scare happened. The entire theater recoiled in horror. I saw Ethan reel back. Life.

The only way I justify the jump scare ending is to imply that by watching the movie the audience has also allowed Bughuul to enter into their homes as well.

They could've done this in a more clever way than a cheap jumpscare.

[@theslasherof78]

@@ArtHazard Agreed. Maybe a shot of his face appearing in the dark telling the audience to "shhhhh" would've been a better way to convey a message like that. But, I do think if they just cut that entire sequence and instead ending on the murders of the Oswalts, it would've been a lot more impactful.

[@TheHorrorMiserMontyG]

That's the problem with movie studios, always thinking that most people only want to see gore and jump scares, not an effective horror movie like Sinister. While there is nothing wrong with jump scares or gore in a horror movie, you also want to care about the characters as well. Otherwise, you'll get bored and zone out of the movie.

The reason i was fine with the jump scare ending in this (But not Sinister 2, spoiler) is because it did fit with the theme of Buhguul using film/photos as a portal into our world. Not only did Edison see video of Buhguul, but SO DID WE, THE VIEWER, it kinda inserts a layer of fear for the viewer (Course, not real, but still.) But yeah, i enjoyed it and this vid.

[@Spectra651]

I had the unfortunate luck of watching this movie right before we moved into a new house. I thought it was really good--very atmospheric, especially the super 8 footage, with an eerie, unsettling score, and a great ending twist--but only after moving did I realize just how much it genuinely scared me. For the first month I was jumping at every little creak and nighttime noise, afraid to go into a room without turning on a light. One time I heard the wind blowing through the front door, and the sound it made was exactly like the moaning sound used for the score; the terror I experienced practically made my heart leap out of my chest. I've never been so grateful that we don't have any kids in the house. I really enjoy horror movies as a genre, but even the great ones don't tend to truly frighten me. Sinister, on the other hand, left me feeling real lingering fear and dread long after it was over.

[@theweaselplays]

This is by far the best scary movie I've ever seen. The eerie setting is perfect. The tension is insane

[@rob5687]

this movie made me so uneasy i haven't watched it since its release in 2012. it was that effective. the way this movie sets up the eerie atmosphere along with the claustrophobic setting of the house. ntm the sound effects used in the film made this movie one of the most uncomfortable and easily the most disturbing horror film i've ever seen. i don't watch many horror films for most of the reasons brought up in the video. the jumpscares and the predictable nature of the film. but this movie was the perfect film for me. im glad i watched this video because i did not know about all of the practical and hidden effects. great video and great film.

A couple of researcher actually did a study where they let a certain amount of people watch the most famous and successful horror movies in the past 30-40 years in a dark room alone. While they constantly checked their pulses, their fear level basically. And in that reasearch this movie actually scored the highest.

[@LadyBern]

I love this movie, after years of being desensitized by gore and jump scares this one had me on the edge of my seat interested, scared and 100% invested. I jumped in surprise, because for once I wasn't expecting it, was flinching at the filmed deaths because they were so unsettling, it was just perfect. Until that last damn minute I wish he had done something else to ease that tension if he wanted to do it so badly. But as much as I love this film I'm so glad that they didn't make a franchise out of it.

That jump scare in the end soured my experience with the movie. I rewatched this a few times and since I knew how it was gonna be in the end, I would stop it before the jump. I never liked horror to be honest. But it's not the genre I dislike in general, it's how the horror is presented that I don't like. I prefer a solid atmospheric, story and character driven horror than a jump scare extravaganza..

[@maladjustedtv]

Watched this tonight with mixed feelings about the "ending"...this review helped me appreciate it more

[@Siderite]

Whenever I hear about a movie that is dark and slow and in a house, I think of House of Leaves. Man, if they would make that into a movie it would be fantastic! That is a perfect example of evil perspiring through every bit of the story, yet no monsters, no irrational behavior from the characters, no comedic relief... Yeah, who invented comedic relief and what the hell is it's purpose? In a horror film!

[@shannonreynolds624]

You kind of brought up a very good point even though you didn't actually say it. The movie The Changling with George C Scott is one of Bravos most scary movies and someone said that what made it so scary was that there were not many special effects and it relied on "old fashion" tension building by writing a good story that focused on the people trying to solve a mystery with a "horror" or in this case a supernatural element to it where you get the entire story that is pieced together throughout the movie with a little twist and a completion where the ghost was somewhat avenged in a non gory way. I think many ghost/horror movies sometimes overuse special FX and don't get me wrong, there are always FX being used but there is an over reliance of them sometimes when they aren't needed and in the place of good story telling and sometimes there is both a good story that gets told with a lot of special FX and they mesh very well. I think the gore films get boring and don't get me started with the 1970 slasher films that followed the same thing ie The Toolbox Murders.

Decent horror movie, but one that would have benefited from not having the paranormal be a factor. The strong suit of the movie are the tapes, but Bughuul or how you spell his name is the weak link. Vincent D'Onofrio is one of my favorite actors, but his appearance midway through explaining about the deity didn't work for my part. Bughuul didn't need to be explained, because nothing is more scary than the unknown.

[@Chozal]

YES. I entirely agree to that.

[@JT-lw1oh]

Sorry but I disagree

[@leonardofarias8843]

Captain Mutton Obviously not omnipotent

[@KosmiskRevolution]

Completely agree! The movement Bughuul turned his head on the paused video it completely lost me, because before that I approached it as a mystery/thriller, and had no hit of it being a paranormal threat. I was trying to figure out the mystery, and suddenly "a ghost did it". That's disappointing. Suddenly there's NO rules and anything can happen. That, and also I simply don't find paranormal horror movies scary, as I don't believe in it, so I'm never immersed in the scares. IMHO kids being manipulated to kill their families by a real life psychopathic killer would be much, much scarier!

[@moonpresence9707]

KosmiskRevolution you set yourself up for disappointment. A person somehow convincing kids to murder their families is a laughable idea. It was never going to be anything other than a supernatural entity and I don't know why you'd expect it. That's like going into The Ring or Lights Out and thinking it's just a person making others think they're a ghost a la Scooby Doo

I love this movie. I saw it in the theater and it's rare for me to actually go to the movies. I was very glad I did and bought it the day it came out on DVD. I'm a stickler for horror, and the best horror is implied as long as it has a good pace and doesn't take it's sweet ass time. This movie is near flawless and I've listened to horror novices and horror buffs nitpick at this movie since it's release, yet it's still one I go back to at least once a year. This "explore" video perfectly sums up the 99% of this movie that I love and solidifies that I'm not the only one who hates that fucking ending. A few of the things that I couldn't exactly put my finger on about why I love this movie you happened to pinpoint here. In the horror that I love, there is no room for humor unless it actually develops a character on some level. I don't want relief of any kind, please make me feel uncomfortable and on edge!

I find myself screaming at the screen, exhasperated at his selfishness that ultimately leads to the death of his family.

At least the jump scare is easily edited out if you wanted to.. Just have it fade as the camera pulls away from the box.. Or reverse the footage right before the scare and cut to black like originally intended.. But considering only one dumb jump scare, It's amazing we got such a great horror movie, with so many being ruined by studio intervention these days. This is how I feel about Rogue 1, the star Wars film. With pretty much all of the newer Star Wars movies being "as a whole" garbage, it's amazing we somehow got one, that from start to end, is pretty Damn awesome! Not ones that either don't look like Star Wars films all together, or ones the poop on the original Heroes, but one that showed how a group of unsung heroes paid the ultimate price so that the Heroes we know and love, would have a Galaxy to shine in.

The film is Hell House LLC & it builds dread beautifully; there are a few scenes that you just 'know' will have a jumpscare, only to be pleasantly surprised when it doesn't come to pass. It's deffo worth watching alone in the dark & is my idea of a good ff horror movie- hopefully some of you will agree!

Hell House LLC was indeed good. It was refreshing to see a FF film that worked.

The focus group thing is very interesting. I've heard other people who took part in them say the same. Apparently, producers only see focus groups as ways to find out what they should CORRECT (what's not liked) in the movie, so it will appeal to everyone. Disregarding focus groups that like the movie and only paying attention to people who don't seems to be standard behavior. This is so incredibly stupid that makes me amazed.
