Sorry, this movie sucks
To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
In 1993, the Wyrick family moves to an affordable real estate in the countryside of Pine Mountain, Georgia. Lisa (Abigail Spencer) is a medium that uses pills to avoid seeing dead people; her husband Andy (Chad Michael Murray) is a ranger and their little daughter Heidi (Emily Alyn Lind) has inherited the gift of her mother. Soon Lisa's sister, Joyce (Katee Sackhoff), who is a free-spirited and reckless woman, asks to stay in a trailer in property and Lisa and Chad agree. .When Heidi befriends and old man named Mr. Gordy (Grant James), her parents believe that he is an imaginary friend but Joyce discovers that he was the owner of the land until his death in the 70's. Further, they discover that the land belonged to a stationmaster that protected slaves in the Nineteenth Century. Heidi insists that Mr. Gordy has told her that they are in danger and the family discovers that an evil spirit is trapped in the land. Will they survive?"The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia" is a frightening ghost story with good story and performances. This movie is not a sequel of the scary "The Haunting in Connecticut" and I have startled many times while watching to this movie. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Evocando Espíritos 2" ("Evoking Spirits 2")
"The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia" wasn't really particularly scary. And by horror standards, then it was fairly generic and non-innovative.The story is about a family moving to a secluded house in the middle of a forest; a house that dates back to the American Civil War. The house was used as a part of the Underground Railroad, harboring fugitive slaves and was run by a man known as the Station Master. Lisa (played by Abigail Spencer), along with her daughter Heidi (played by Emily Alyn Lind) and her sister Joyce (played by Katee Sackhoff) are capable of seeing apparitions and visions from the spirit world. With a dark and brooding past, the haunts are starting to come out of the ground and haunt the family in their newly acquired home.Storywise, then "The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia" was actually quite alright. It was a good approach for the ghost movie. Although, the ghosts were awfully physical and manifested in my opinion."The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia" is frightfully devoid of scares and really spooky moments. So don't get your hopes up in regards to getting scared out of your seat, because it just will not happen. However, I will say that the effects on the corpses below the ground was really awesome, and I enjoyed that quite a lot. And while we are on the topic of corpses, then the physically manifested taxidermist wasn't really particularly scary, especially after the story had set him up as something evil had been unleashed.One of the best scenes, nay, change that; the best scene in the movie, was the scene where Joyce was in the RV and was paid a visit by the taxidermist. That scene well worth sitting through the entire movie just to get to watch.Ultimately, then "The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia" wasn't too bad, but on the other hand, don't get your hopes up to high, because there isn't really anything that much impressive here either.I had expected more ghosts and less physical manifestations. But hey, we can't always get what we want, eh? As such, then "The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia" get a 4 out of 10 rating from me.
A small family moves into a home in Georgia only to discover they are not alone. Soon they realize that the house holds a mysterious past...Although I do not understand the title or the need to call it a sequel I thought this movie was good. It offered a solid background story with outstanding acting. The movie starts well paced and keeps going until the end. The climax I found to be a bit outlandish but good and the ending offers a good resolution the story. The horror scenes are well placed and not overdone. The set ties in well with the story and the production quality is excellent. This film will satisfy the horror movie junkie and is well worth your time.
I thought this movie was one of the best 'horror' movies I have seen. It has to be made clear at this point that this is not a 'slasher' movie, in fact there is no slashing in it at all. Hence there wasn't much 'gore' and blood spilling, but that is not to say there wasn't any horrifying imagery, actually it was quite memorable and imaginative in that regard. There wasn't much new in terms of scares but there were plenty and the makers put great effort in keeping you on edge throughout by keeping you guessing what would come next. The acting was entirely acceptable and although I was worried at first that certain characters would get annoying they turned it around by the end. The two things the movie managed to achieve extremely well were atmosphere and historical context. At the end of the day even the best horror movies rarely compare well to great movie from other genres and generally only work if you 'let yourself believe' as such this movie achieved everything it could want to achieve. It's fits well onto a list with similarly well executed films such as The Awakening, Silent Hill 1, The Orphan and Sinister and was much better than a lot of the uninspired rest. Btw, yes, the naming was silly and almost made me not watch this but that doesn't take away anything from the actual movie itself. Also it didn't feel like a 'based on a true story for the sake of it' kind of movie and I was surprised, but din't really care to find out at the end.
