    Full Price. When I first watched this movie, I was mad that it couldn't be in english except for subtitles. After I watched it though, it was fucking amazing.

    This movie fucking rocks, I `ve just seen it and I watched your review because i couldn`t remember what you`ve said about it... First of all the movie name is El Orfanato, and not The Orphanage... Only thing about this review that annoys me is that you gave all gave it a grade lower then you actually thought... Carlyle it felt like you were about to give it a better then sex and I don`t understand the Korey`s matinee as well. and overall matinee is truly underrating of this future classic... by the way I love you guys, and don`t forget to bring a towel...

    Looks interesting. I like Guillermo Del Toro's imagination anyway. He creates shit you don't usually get from Hollywood. Dark content. He's a creator after my own heart, whatever that means.

    Between a bunch of bad horror remakes and some new but not so good stories, we must be thankful for this movie. Maybe its not the most original but it is very interesting, it has a lot of suspense that will keep you on the edge of your seat, it has that kind of psychological terror that will make you jump when you least expect it. Although it isn't directed by Guillermo Del Toro, its clearly that his style is all over this film. It has a slow rhythm but the movie never turns tiresome. Its dark and creepy setting fits really good. The performances from the cast are wonderful, Belen Rueda's is excellent and convincing, you really can feel her desperation and Geraldine Chaplin deserves a mention apart for her special appearance. This is one of the best movies I've seen on the year, really a must see for everyone.

    That movie was so bad I can't even find the words to describe it. Not only is it boring ((no I don't need action in my movies garden state for one example is a movie I can watch and not get bored)) but it just seems poorly written. I mean seriously Korey brings up the Devil's Backbone in this review and while I got a little bored in that I found it much more entertaining then this POS movie. There was nothing scary, there was nothing keeping me on the edge of my seat. The story felt dull and unimaginative, the ghost seemed more annoying then scary and at some points the movie seemed void of logic. This is no Pan's Labyrinth so I suggest people stay far away from this one. I give this movie Some Old Bullshit!

    This movie rocked my uterus. I have not jumped and screamed that much since I saw the ending of "The Crying Game".

    The movie is subtitled...well, that means it's utter crap. /sarcasm/ Get a fucking education. What, you can't READ?

  • January 04, 2008 at 5:25 PM, Dr Doom said ...

    Matinee? Matinee? Again, you show your ignorance, Coleman. Your difficulty at reading the subtitles surely contributed to your feelings of insignificance. Easily a full price film. Doom grants it 4 out of 5 Doom-bots

    Crap I want to see this so bad but it is subtitled. There hasn't been a good scary film in a while, this one looks good

    Leon kind of contradicted himself, first you say it wasn't well made then you say it wasn't. Do you like it or not?

    I just saw this film and I say Rental. I thought the movie was well done and the acting was phenomenal, but i just didn't feel it was at all scary for a ghost thriller type of movie. Don't get me wrong it was a great story but its just not something I would pay full price for.

    im glad i speak spanish so i dont have to read anything how youuuu like me now

  • January 04, 2008 at 1:49 AM, Bryan said ...

    Man, I'd like to see this, but I am just too damn lazy to read subtitles for 2 hours. And living kids are creepy enough, let alone dead ones...

    why didn't this get "full price" if two out of four voted for it?

    NOOOO! My crappy comment that didn't contribute really in any way...it's gone!

    Hey, at least you're updating again! Focus on the good, man. I didn't even hear about this film, but now I'd like to see it...sounds interesting, and maybe the kind of film Uwe Bool and Rob Zombie should pay more attention to.

    Sorry, everyone. I was trying to update the last video and somehow duplicated them AND erased all the comments. Hopefully we'll have this sorted out sometime today. My most humble apologies.

  • January 02, 2008 at 8:39 PM, Kenny said ...

    The hell? Where'd my comments go and why was this uploaded twice?
