GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Onlinewsma Absolutely Brilliant!
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
raya g If i could give this movie no starts i would. The entire movie was pointless, the beginning made no sense at all. It started with a random girl (5mins of fame) who heard something in the hallway then went to the attic ad saw a girl who looked just like her, she ran outside and fell (typical) then when she looked up the girl was standing in front of her and then out of nowhere she just started shaking like she was retarded. Final the main character comes in and she hears something in the attic and sees a girl who looks just like her. Later in the movie we find out its her twin who died 12 days after she was born and only had half a brain or something. This is were the entire beginning was pointless, how would the dead twin know that her twin was going to move into the house later on? Why did the dead twin look like the girl in the beginning if she was the twin of the second girl? If the dead twin died 12 days after she was born, why was she full grown and haunting her sister? Pointless!!! The acting was bad. The words they were saying didn't match facial expressions. There was one part in the movie when the girl seen the dead twin in the window, so literally the alive twin slammed her head into the stove or counter top and fell and was unconscious, i laughed my butt off, i showed my bf and my bff and we were all laughing so hard. I guess she was posed to be surprised, but it looked like she slammed her head down intentionally lol!!! All in all movie sucked! I watched it b/c it was actually entertaining i laughed thru the bad acting and terrible graphics of the shooting her dad in the head and her mother, also the slitting her brothers throat was pretty bad as well! I hope you guys enjoy the movie more then me, it was bad!!!
suspiria10 Rating: 3 out of5Genre: Horror , Haunted House, PossessionDirector: Mary LambertStars: Elisabeth Moss, Jason Lewis, Tom Malloy, John Savage, Catherine Mary Stewart, Thomas Jay Ryan, Alexandra Daddario, Gil Deeble, Nick Gregory, Sara MaraffinoSynopsis: Emma (Elisabeth Moss) moves into a nice rural home with her parents. Soon after settling down she investigates the attic to find strange Wiccan symbols painted about and a large mirror that reflects seemingly an evil, distorted version of herself. Before long she is so terrified about the things she sees that she won't go outside and the only person who believes her is a detective that takes pity on her. Thoughts: Director Mary Lambert (no stranger to horror with "Pet Sematary" and "American Psycho" to her credit) does a good job of sprucing up this familiarly constructed script with a creepy atmosphere that makes the most of the films lone location. The cast does a fine job crazy-ing up the screen. In Conclusion: "The Attic" is a solid but unspectacular film that makes due with what it has.
pbothra A VERY bad movie with a broken plot, bad actors, and clearly a terrible director/producer. Believe it or not, I actually sat through the entire movie (I should not even call it a movie - does not even deserve that title) just to see how bad it can possibly get and trust me, it got pretty bad. The movie actually got worst and worst as the movie progressed. I was actually laughing by the end of the movie just watching the unbearable and inexplicable chain of events. You can tell its a very low-budget film from the onset. They could have maybe worked something out of the story, if the movie actually had actors or a true director. They were all amateurs and seemed as if they were acting for the first time ever. This was easily the worst movie I have ever seen, and I've some pretty bad movies. It should be listed top 10 on IMDb's bottom 250. Please save yourself the anguish and the two hours.
Sintalk The attic is certainly not the movie of the year or a movie to be remembered but certainly a movie that didn't make me think i wasted my time.A pretty decent haunted house story with some bad acting but a good movie pace.I'm sure with a bigger budget it would have become a horror flick that could satisfy the fans of the genre.It keeps the same eerie feeling from beginning to end and the main character's descent into madness left me quite satisfied.It is a movie based on atmosphere more than pop up scares which was nice for a change.It certainly could have been more scary or more gory but for it to get a 3,5 rating...you guys surely haven't watched really bad horror movies.
