Review of Oculus (2014) by Demonic_Saint — 23 Mar 2015
Honestly, I thought that this movie was one of the best horror movies I've seen yet since the movie-series (Saw). The mind-twisting plot and brilliant visual structure really allows the viewer to capture the phenomenal scenes played out within the movie. My wife, 2 children, and I absolutely adored it. However, I feel as if the ending would've been a bit better if... (SPOILERS ARE COMING).
The sister did not die in vain. Perhaps, it would have been much more realistic and satisfying to the viewer if the glass shattered beneath her body while being pummeled in the head, which of course would still kill her by the end. That is why I was truly confused as to why the brother had a flash-back of the sister making him PROMISE that the wretched "EVIL" glass be killed no matter what. I think I am speaking for everyone when I say that the true moral would've and should have been; Evil can not truly shatter the sincere love and promises of blood. (This is true as to the father and mother having an outstanding relationship, and their own way of seeking vengeance! (THEIR KIDS) maybe that's why they were left alive, to fulfill their destiny? :-).
~ All in all, it was great, but with a few minor tweaks it could have been a true masterpiece.
With love, Dr Sam.
