It's October! Fall is here, say hello to cold, brisk air and longer evenings. Blankets, hoodies, and cuddles. Pumpkins, candy, and hot tea. Halloween, costumes, and Hard Rock Hotel. Anddddd... SCARY MOVIES!! Emily, Christina and I just saw what might be the scariest movie I've seen in the past decade. I literally had my eyes closed and my hands to my face the entire time.
The premise is a Ellison (Ethan Hawke) and his family move into a house where the family living in it prior was killed by being hung from a tree. Ellison is a writer so the purpose of his move is to write a crime story about how the family died and why the youngest child was still missing. While looking for evidence to write his book he finds a box of old film reels in the attic. The film shows footage of family murders, to give you an idea of what these were like: the first one involved a family being duct taped in and tied up in the car with chains around it just before the car was set on fire. Nice.
"A true crime novelist discovers a box of mysterious, disturbing home movies that plunge his family into a nightmarish experience of supernatural horror."
Ugh it's freaking me out just writing about it. The scariest part is when the killers face moves in the computer screen. HE BETTER STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM MY DREAMS TONIGHT.
