The Conjuring

Maybe Grown Up 2 is more to your liking.

maybe i should've rocked the vote and urged my friends to watch that wolverine movie instead.

spooky house, yes. once the ghosts shows up, it became "comedic" the least.

fat elderly witch leaping from the top of the cabinet? okaaay.

i know this was a faith based horror flick. but the end movie quote was a bit obviously forced. like, see you at sunday mass, k?.lolz

A pretty damn good horror flick in the 70's style. It nailed the most important aspect of a horror film, the atmosphere. You could feel the dread. Loved the soundtrack.

Agreed! I really loved this film.

 

[CelticPredator]

I knew I would love this movie as soon as the titles came up. That was perfect.

Hell ya, that whole opening scene was great.

I've not seen this yet but I know I'll love it. I'm a huge James Wan fan. I don't like seeing horror movies at the cinema though , I just can't really get into them with an audience. It kills the atmosphere for me.

the Arclight Theater in Hollywood has some cool props on display...

Just came from seeing it and I liked it, but wasn't blown away by it. I mean, horror is not really my genre so I probably don't appreciated it as much as others may, but it was still a good movie overall.

I saw this last night, and I can honestly say it was the best horror movie I've seen in theaters in a long time! I loved every second of it. The entire movie just felt daunting after a while. My theater apparently had some pretty big basses in their sound system, so when anything was about to happen the freaking ceiling would shake!!

It made for one hell of a ride, and I'm hoping for more of these kind of movies in the future! Also, I know people will disagree, but I feel this is the new Exorcist for my generation.

 

[EVILFACE]

I agree, it is a movie you want to see at the theaters because of the sound system. Some deep bass.

Blasphemy!!!!!!



*it had bits of things been done and seen before(cheesy bits and cliches included), not even ground breaking. this wont even stand up to the other asian ghost/horror counter part. IMO.

 

[Matt S]

Blasphemy!!!!!!

Yeah, I would not go that far, but to me it was a really nice horror film

The Conjuring was quite spooky including the first half of the film when there wasn't much of a reveal. The sound effects in the theatre really amped up the experience.

Too bad some people just can't embrace being in fear through entertainment, so they keep talking or making gags thus dispersing the build up tension.

Never been arrested in my life, but I will likely loose it someday and will end up whacking some guys in the theatre. It will be glorious.

Are you talking "whacked" in the little kid with a stick sense or the fat Italian with a gun sense?

 

[CelticPredator]

With 2 guns.

Or the lady on street corner you gave a $50.

With 2 guns.

Ha..I was wondering if some would interpret it as the gun route, but na.. good old fashioned punch to the face and hitting their head. The thing is it's just a matter of time, somebody with a big ego who can't accept they are in the wrong when confronted, is going to attack me first eventually.

In this case I couldn't see the jerks as they were seated way down from where we were sitting. So I couldn't even pin point even if I wanted to complain or confront them. And that whole process would mean I would lose watching the movie. But I was really tempted to find and hit one of them on the back of their head and then immediately return back to my seat.

There have been times when I told people near me who were talking or opening their phone during the movie to stop it and again reminded them during half time.

The best one was when a guy kept occasionally kicking the seat behind me, I turned around in my seat standing on my knees and told him that he better stop it NOW. He and his other friends just left the whole row behind us and sat on the other end of the theatre then. I am a skinny guy who probably will get beaten up good when if I do end up in a big fight, but somebody ruins my cinema experience I am going to give them hell and will go swinging in a fight before I fall down.

I usually avoid Friday night shows to avoid such noisy crowd. But one of my friends didn't want to wait further as the movie was already delayed here.

For my most awaited movies I usually go to the morning Friday opening shows, the crowd that time usually are the ones who also have been anticipating those movies like myself and aren't the ones who ruin the experience for others. Sadly there was no morning show for this movie.

I rarely go to horror movies in theatres, but I knew I didn't want to miss this experience in the theatre despite the possible nuisance.

 

[batfan08]

Yeah, people in theaters can be ***holes. I wish there was a Drafthouse in Ohio.

 

[Vivek]

I wish Drafthouse was a worldwide theatre chain. Still the Cinepolis multiplex here is better the rest of the theatre chains. Of course nobody implements the no talking, no texting rule like Drafthouse.
