Orphan-Exciting Horror movie! Must see!

Let me say that both the script and acting were pretty good, but the cinematography was absolutely outstanding! I've also been dissapointed in most horror movies to come out recently, but Orphan was certainly one of the exceptional scary flims of the past few years. During the first half hour I was afraid I'd wasted money, but despite the lack of a supernatural plot, Orphan ended up feeling as exciting as The Amityville Horror! And this is not another market-driven slasher, it's pretty unique. I thought surprise endings were all used up after The Sixth Sense, but I would have never guessed this one. Be warned that the very first scene is pretty disturbing, but I would recommend Orphan as a theatre experience if you like thrillers, horror and mystery.
