I don't know.. saw the trailer in the cinema and looks like the kind of thing that has been done countless times. You know...spooky house with evil past and stuff and some ghostbuster-like people are called to investigate. Then this girl's leg got pulled by some spirit and I was like.. hey I've seen that in Paranormal Activity! And then the trailer ends with someone first seeing nothing in front of her, when she looks to the other side and looks back to the front, boom suddenly the ghost appears. You see that in like every single horror trailer.
But since its getting rave reviews and is said to be the biggest opening for an R rated movie ever, I guess there might be some surprises.

Some cinemas (especially MBO) will be showing sneaks from Friday to Sunday so if you can't wait to scare yourself silly then this is your chance.

Why everyone feel proud of just a mere malaysia born? If he grew up here and received education here then yes go ahead be proud. He is not even Malaysian anymore.

Yeah. He always seem to say that he's born in Malaysia but never really say he's Malaysian.
I don't think many people (ok maybe the older generation) will be that proud if they found out a Malaysian is the mastermind of movies like SAW.
Only when he was given the directors seat to Fast and Furious 7 did everyone started to go "Hey look a Malaysian is directing one of the biggest franchise of our time!".

Finally checked this out after all the fuss about the upcoming Annabel.
Wasn't as scary as I expected. Not even one of the scariest movies I've seen.
The clapping in the dark when the mother was holding a match part would have probably given me a heart attack if it weren't because I knew the clap was coming because that scene was the god damn movie poster. What a spoiler.
I don't know...I've just never been into these possessed type of movies. People getting possessed and running amok and stuff and priest chanting gibberish with a cross and all that. I just think its very tiring to watch. And I did watched The Exorcist, The Shining, Poltergeist a few months ago and also didn't find it scary.

I supposed I'm more into the supernatural with less blood since these are the things that you or someone you know has experienced. Some of my favs are the first Paranormal Activity, Dark Water, Shutter, The Orphanange.

To me what you can't see is the scariest thing. Once you've seen it, it would probably be scary as hell for a few seconds, but not after that.
