I absolutely loved it!! Sure, some parts made it more unbelievable than it already was but overall, I thought the acting was amazing!! For the entire film I felt like I was watching a real home video.

I really didn’t like this movie. It wasn’t scary at all to me… usually when I see a good scary movie, I’ll be too afraid to turn off the lights or go to bed for nights but this movie didn’t do that to me. I actually slept really well. It was just kind of like “meh.” Micah was really annoying so that didn’t help, and the whole “Night 1, Night 2, Night 3″ thing got kind of old. The only part that creeped me out was when she got dragged out of the bed. The demon seemed like it was a character in the film that was just having fun scaring them, but it didn’t seem real and it just made me laugh.To be honest, I think more effort could have gone into it.

I really liked this movie. I think, however, that it is because I’m very much into the paranormal and shows that go with. I think its scary because it really isnt that far from the truth. The fact that this wasnt a blood bath and gore movie is a huge plus for me.

@Clint. “All these people who are complaining about this movie not being scary have never been through anything paranormal, obviously”

Wrong :D I didn’t think the movie was scary and I have had some paranormal experiences.

The movie completely lost me with the psychic guy and the talk of ghosts vs demons, etc. It reminded me too much of those lame paranormal shows that been cropping up everywhere lately with their “psychics” and other such bad actors.

I was so excited to see this movie and it was a true disappointment. Way too long and just boring. Don’t waste your money, wait for the dvd if you must see it.

All these people who are complaining about this movie not being scary have never been through anything paranormal, obviously. The real deal really is this subtle, this slow-moving, this occasional. As a matter of fact, its usually a lot more boring than the movie was, though somewhat more exciting than what one sees, say, on Ghost Hunters or whatever.

All in all, I found it nightmarish, as in you hope the bumps in the night and the occasional moving objects that usually make life a little more interesting and fun, and make for good stories, never turn into this. However, I’m always cheering when those stupid Blair Witch kids or this douche Micah get it in the end. If it’s not your woods, and someone says its haunted, don’t go in it. If you got a demon, you call a priest of some sort, maybe a kabbalistic rabbi if you’re Jewish, or some other person of spiritual expertise, duh, you don’t holler at it or get out Ouija boards.

@Frisa — The movie is presented as if it was a true story, as if we were watching the “real video” recorded by these “real characters”. It is entirely fiction.

I saw it….and I must say I was deeply disappointed. It did make me jump in a few scenes but overall I thought it kinda sucked. I’m just glad I had a gift card to use so I didn’t spend my own money. Maybe someone can answer this question….by the way they ended it…was this based on some actual events? Because they say how his body was found by police and the girl had never been seen again so it left me with the impression that it was based on true events. Anyone??
