Insidious



After a friend said Rose Byrne (Wicker Park, 28 Weeks Later) was my doppleganger in Insidious (I just don't see it) and hearing that this movie was great, unpredictable, oh and my love for horror films, I had to see it.





My opinion: this movie dragged. To me, it was totally predictable and there were so many long, drawn out scenes. The music/loud noises they played in just the first 5 minutes of the opening credits even made me want to walk out! I also think the best actor overall was played by Lin Shaye, random.



What I am really looking forward to is Scream 4! We're seeing it immediately when Jon gets home from Boston.




I can list 100 horror flicks that I love to death, what are some of yours?

  5. I love cheesy horror movies like Dead Alive, Re-Animator, Army of Darkness, etcetc. I can't do creepy horror.

    I hear Scream 4 sucks too :( I hope its not as bad as I've heard so you two can enjoy it!

    Also, I don't see the resemblance between you and that actress at all!

  6. I am a huge horror film junkie. I love the feeling of being anxious and scared shitless when I watch a really good scary movie. haha.

    I wanted to see insidious but it was pg13 so... I didn't think it was worth it to go see it in the theater and good thing I didn't!

    Saw scream 4 when it came out, let me know what you think. I don't want to say anything so you can get the full experience haha.
