One of the most interesting and well-made horror films I've seen in ages. Although the ending felt fairly unambiguous, I loved the way the story presented different narrative possibilities all overlayed on each other. Like watching each chapter of Rashomon simultaneously.

Creepy horror movie that gets a little too trippy for its own good - but it still did an excellent job of balancing the traditional "jump" scares with a nice dose of psychological horror. Though the young adult leads were a bit of a bore - it was still overall a better horror film than I was expecting. Not quite The Conjuring, but for a year where horror has been lax, it stands out as one of the better offerings. Watch with the lights out and the sound up - and don't look behind you...

Ten years ago, tragedy struck the Russell family, leaving the lives of teenage siblings Tim and Kaylie forever changed when Tim was convicted of the brutal murder of their parents. This movie may have ripped off the 2008 film (mirrors) But this movie was creepy and chilling to watch.

A twisty, trippy, mind-bending mystery-thriller. Mike Flanagan's follow up to ABSENTIA features an admirable use of creepy dread over cheap jump scares and empty gore. Featuring solid performances and brilliant editing, Oculus is a refreshing horror film that may disappoint main stream audiences looking for a straight forward supernatural horror picture. Though it certainly has its fair share of dread.
