Cheap jump scares ain't horror

It's like every modern horror piece released today. They all follow the same formula and do not distinguish themselves from the pack.Too much of a reliance on jump scares. Modern day horror's crutch. Sets a nice creepy mood then WHAMO!! A jump scare. It's a cheap device. It's a hindrance to the horror genre.Look at The Exorcist. That should be your blueprint. Sets a creepy atmosphere and the shock is earned and not cheap. The horror is there embedded in the story. Modern horror is like an airhorn used on someone while they are sleeping.Didn't mind just he subtitles. Not bad but not an upper tier horror movie. Meh..

What was that?

I'm really wondering why they made this movie. Imagine you look at a house and have a creepy feeling about it. And you move in anyway. With your little 6 year old boy and boyfriend who is away at night often for work. And the house is white and cute but next door the attached house is black and creepy and looks like the Adam's family live there. And you never ask or find out who lives there. And at night you're always sitting in the dark and don't bother turning on lamps that are in plain view. And finally after a lot of weird and creepy things happen you decide to go into the creepy house at night and alone and through the attic. I guess the lady just wants to be scared to death or discover the murderer next door. And the movie progresses at a snails pace. Otherwise a great movie... but I didn't stay for the whole thing. Saw enough

Average

This wasn't a bad movie, it's just the same movie you've already seen 30 times before. Here are only a few of the same old worn out scenes:1. Family goes to see a new house, the child makes a comment about someone living in the closet and is ignored.2. Supernatural stuff happens, complete with jump scares you'll see coming from a mile away.3. Wife and child are left alone in the house but husband refuses to believe what they say is happening.4. Wife looks up house's history online but doesn't share that knowledge with husband.5. Wife tracks down former owner who explains that his wife experienced the exact same things.6. Husband is shocked to find that wife was telling the truth all along.7. Tension-filled fight with entity.8. Everyone is still alive. They embrace while crying. The end. Yawn.
