Review of Sinister (2012) by Laurie M — 22 Jul 2013
This was the second scariest film I've ever seen (the first being the American version of "The Ring", the gold standard for horror films). Many horror films about the supernatural start out well, but devolve into absurd wrap-ups (e.
G. "Insidious", "Mama"). By contrast, "Sinister" has a tight story and excellent editing. Really well-done. The dark, shut-in atmosphere -- and Ethan Hawke's rather unlikeable character -- didn't lessen the suspense, which gripped me throughout the film.
An excellent, super-scary ending. Recommended for fans of scary, supernatural horror.
