Review for Haunters: The Art of the Scare

This was a documentary that I watched while I was at work. I believe once I started this and then changed my mind. Haunted houses are interesting, but I don't tend to go to them. Part of the reason is that they can be pricey so finding someone to join is an issue. There's also the issue now of having a small child who has an early bedtime and another one on the way. Seeing what these people do here is impressive, especially since they aren't necessarily 'professionals'.We end up following Russ McKamey, Shar Mayer and Donald Julson, or at least those are the ones that I believe this focuses on. Russ and Donald create haunts in their yard, which are impressive. Shar is an actor that works at different jobs to scare people. It is fun to learn more about each of them, how they got into what they do and see where their aspirations are for the future. This does come with issues, like Russ expanding out to a farm until the neighbors have an inspector come. Not everything is bad here, but it does bring up the question of how far is too far, especially with McKamey Manor.This was quite interesting to watch. Seeing the time and effort that is put into it. Hearing how much it costs for these people who don't charge all that much. I learned more here than I was expecting. It is heartwarming at times to learn about these people and see how happy they are doing these things. There is only one part that bothers me. McKamey Manor is an extreme haunt, with a safe word. It does bother me to see one of his neighbors who is basically tortured for his enjoyment. It toes the line of the law. What is even more interesting is hearing people who go through this and how they want to come back as actors to scare others.In general, this is an interesting documentary that is well made. I do think focusing more on the haunts in general would add to this, but it is cool to see what they put together for sure.My Rating: 7 out of 10.

fun and interesting

If you love Halloween and love being scared this is definitely something you'll enjoy. It's pretty fascinating and shows u a side of horror you've never seen before. A history of haunted houses and how they have evolved. Everyone's story is different yet they all do it for the love of the scare. Fun and interesting. A must see for horror fans.
