Sinister

"The scares are not just intense but unyielding in this compelling horror yarn."

"An enjoyable, if boilerplate, boo-flick that maintains an enviable rate of scares per minute by throwing everything - demons, ghosts, snakes, loud noises - at the screen."

"This so-so, occasionally effective horror film combines found-footage creepiness and haunted-house scares - but is stronger on mood than story."

"There isn't an ounce of ingenuity in the way the movie is concluded, but some generic expertise in the way it is put together."

"An undeniably scary movie, with performances adding enough human interest to give depth to the basic building blocks of horror."

"As the best horror stories so often do, Sinister makes clear that we are our own boogeymen, the worst monsters of all."

"Enjoyably edgy fright flick meshes serial-killer and haunted house ingredients."

"Derrickson bounces back from his insipid redo of The Day The Earth Stood Still with an effective chiller that's got a skeleton or two in its closet."

"An occult thriller that scares with an absolute relentlessness."
