Movie Review: Haunting of Winchester House (2009)
IMDb 3.1/10 (138 votes) Why, who and how do these people make movies?
Summary: I had to stop myself reaching for my Winchester...
OK, truth time (again) I managed an excruciating 13 minutes and 37 seconds of this movie. Hey, it's not my fault I've watched a few good movies of late and the contrast was simply too much.
Where to start? Let's try the formulaic, trite, over-done, pretentious and irritating start. Don't worry about spoilers. I could write down every scene and you'd still be going "so?".
Here we go! A courier rocks up to a house and there's a girl playing in the yard, the courier gives a parcel to the lady in the house, the lady in the house gets scared and draws a pentagram (except it's not) on the floor, then she steps outside it and gets thrown into a tree. Fast forward (wow, that's SO INNOVATIVE !!) and a couple with their daughter rent/holiday (?) in the house.
And that's where I could take no more. Maybe I've missed out on THE cinematic experience of my life! I could care less.
