My Thoughts:
I have made it a tradition to watch at least some of these films around Halloween for years now. And after Watching it multiple times... I found I enjoy it now just as much as I did the first time I seen it. I really like the character of Cassandra Nightingale (The Good Witch) and the lovely Catherine Bell did a wonderful job in the role. I couldn't imagine anyone doing it better. I been a fan of Catherine Bell every since her JAG days. If there is anything I didn't care for though... it would be that the ending felt like it was settled a little quickly and easily. But that didn't really take away from the movie for me.

My Thoughts:
So, it was time for a revisit to this movie. Saw it when it first came out, and i enjoyed it then. And i enjoyed it now aswell. And ofc  (me being a fan of Jennifer Lawrence) its fun to see her in something other then the movies she's known for. The story isnt original, but they made it work. Some good moments here and there, and they have the tension trough-out. All in all a decent horror flick. Check it out.

My Thoughts:
This is a movie I got for my Birthday back in '05. My daughter Brittany got it for me knowing how much I enjoyed ghost stories. And that is what Boo is... a pretty good ghost story. Definitely not the best I ever seen... but not bad either. I felt the story started out slow and feeling like a low budget horror. But then as the movie went on it became more of a serious ghost movie. I wouldn't call Boo scary... even though it does try to be. They attempted the atmosphere from the very beginning but I feel it tried too hard instead of letting it come naturally from the story... especially in the beginning. The atmosphere approved once they got into the hospital... but still felt forced. In my opinion... they shouldn't of felt the need to try to make the movie feel scary in the first few scenes when all they had to do was set up the story and introduce the characters. A horror movie does not need to be scary from beginning to end to be good... unfortunately that is just what Boo tried to do... and for me at least.... that really made the beginning of the movie almost laughable. For the first few scenes I thought I just wasn't going to make it through this movie. But as I said... Boo did turn out to be a pretty good movie. I did enjoy it... and I am glad I have it added to my collection. As for my recommendation... I would Cautiously Recommend this one. Even though I did enjoy it... I can see this movie putting people off. So it really isn't one I would recommend to everyone. I would say if you are curious about this movie... Rent it first.

A poor family that is haunted by something. And ofc with them over to visit from USA, alot of great things happens in that house (Scary great things that is) And ofc, Patrick Wilson singing the Elvis song. A great touch in a creepy way. Just loved this movie. Great horror, and this blurayset offers some cool extras. A interview with the real family aswell. Its a must see!

My Thoughts:
Just finished this one... and I must say.. enjoyed it quite a bit. It has a good story line and likable characters... even if they did make the sister-in-law a little on the weird side. This film easily kept my attention through-out. It shows that there is good and evil in everyone. I also liked how they made it a completely seperate story compared to the first one... and not some type of continuation of the same family or house or what have you. The movie is well worth the time put in to watch it. Recommended.

My Thoughts:
So, back on my horror marathon. Decided to check this norwegian horror movie out again. I bought this when it came out in 03 as a DVD. And now i upgraded it to bluray. And the transfer wasnt the best i've seen tho. But as for the movie, it wasnt as good as i rememeberd it to be. The story is ok at best, and the scare moments are only a few. But for me, there are a few big plus tho. Some great big Norwegian names, who i didnt expect to see. All in all, a ok horror.
