well, it was trying to be funny and sacry, which is difficult to pull off well.


it was trying to be Blair Witch, but it never was cut as well as it. The film at times moved too remorselessy through the scenes that you would expect, rather than offering up any suprises.

Def a fun film to watch. not a horror movie though ( i only jumped once, ok).

oh - why do hollywood persist in casting blatant over 25 year olds in the role of children, i dont know. appalling casting there.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?

My oh My oh My lol where do i start hmmm ..... here goes and pre-warned readers im trying desprately not to rant Firstly for the first 20 mins of the movie i thought they were doing some sort of comedy with the exorcism as material for humour and if the film had stayed that way for the duration i would have probably said thats okay a nice new twist but ooooh nooooo!! Secondly it then starts to take a more sinister turn or at least it tried to there was absolutely nothing new with this film. Everything they did has been done before and far better too i just left the cinema at the end with a slight feeling of nausia and major disappointment there was zero scare factor and in actual fact when one very easily frightened guy let out a scream of fright the rest of the cinema laughed along with him that in actual fact was about the highlight of the evening LOL well i can say no more on this movie looks like might yet have to wait a while for a decent movie of this type :( a shady 4/10 from me

They were settling down to watch The Switch! Either the staff misdirected them to the wrong screen or they screwed up. If it took them 15mins to leave then I siuspect the latter.
Makes me question their sanity if they could confuse The Last Exorcism with The Switch... :roll:
At the Shaftesbury Avenue cinema, I was in the back of the queue so just followed the immediate group in front of me. We went into the screen and took our seats, then on the screen it said to put on our 3d glasses on and commenced to show a cartoon trailer...Then we all looked at each other. Not a word was said but we all smiled and laughed at each other as we all in unison got up from our seats and quietly walked back out of the screen and went into the next one, where an attendant confirmed that this was the one!

The screen was fine but the volume was too low and often there was booming sound coming from the next screen which sounded like some loud Jerry Brucheimer movie!

Yep talk of being haunted, Shaftsbury Cineworld only opened at 6:20, because they closed it for a while due to a fire alarm and then we were all sent to the wrong cinema screen.

Too scared to go for this one after the nightmares I experienced from the previous one. Was really scary. :undecided: how much horror will you ppl rate this one compared to the previous?
