    We just watched this movie. Was this supposed to be true or what? We thought it was dumb. In fact I said if I had paid to see it I would have been Pi**ed!

    My boss watched it the other evening. She's into that kind of thing. She said it was stupid. To each their own. I haven't seen it yet.

    I love those kinds of movies too but this was just a couple video taping inside their house. It wasn't even a movie. Like I said dumb. I know your not supposed to tell how a movie is but it was just so dumb I just couldn't help myself. SORRY :?

    Ya that is why I have not seen it, I dont waste my money on those kinds of movies, I will watch them when they are on tv kinda fun to watch because usually they are so stupid it is fun to see all the mistakes and make fun of them.

    I was very disappointed. We rented it at Redbox so only paid $1. And even for that it wasn't worth it. I don't know why it received the hype it did...

    Haven't seen it, but I read that it was an amateur movie that somehow got major attention. I guess people were very curious about what got filmed - and what is on the film is supposed to have really happened - like, live.

    If you're expecting to see a real movie, one that was professionally filmed and directed, this wouldn't be it.

    The credits at the end of the movie said that all the events in it are fictitious.

    I watched it at home from the DVD that my daughter bought. And yeah, it was stupid. All 4 actors in it were stupid.

    I felt like that after the Blair Witch movie. The thing is, some of us do attract ghosties. I was raised in a haunted house, amd my grandparent's place from the 1700's was haunted, too. I know what I've seen with my own eyes. In all those years, I only once caught a ghost on film. They never seem to come out to play when the camera is within reach.
