Gerry Barnaby's Film Review: The Apparition

Genre : Paranormal Horror Thriller, Contains strong intense paranormal scenes.

Cert: 18 cert

Story: When frightening events start to occur in their home, young couple Kelly (Ashley Greene) and Ben (Sebastian Stan) discover they are being haunted by a presence that was accidentally conjured during a university parapsychology experiment. The horrifying apparition feeds on their fear and torments them no matter where they try to run. Their last hope is an expert in the supernatural, Patrick (Tom Felton), but even with his help they may already be too late to save themselves from this terrifying force

Likes : I'm going on record & saying that all the reviews Ive seen about this film say its a bad film & it not worth watch are completely wrong about this film,Ive seen all the reviews on rotten tomato it seem they always put a film down, so im going on record & saying this film isn't as bad as they make it out to be. This film really dose have it moments the generally have a intense frighting feel about it, the whole concept of this film where four students doing an experiment unwittingly open a door that shouldn't be opened & brought forth a evil force that wants to live is frighting. Ashley Greene plays the girlfriend who get caught up in the whole mess, Sebastian Stan plays the boyfriend who former girlfriend died in the experiment. Tom Felton play the tech paranormal expert who tries to trap the this evil force. Julianna Guill (cameo) plays the former girlfriend Lydia, Luke Pasqualino (cameo) plays Greg,Rick Gomez plays the father next door Mike with he little daughter Maggie played by Anna Clark (cameo) & Marti Matulis play the evil unseen force.The good thing about this film is it start off with a good start, then you think everything is OK as they move to the house a year later,then when all this freak stuff starts happen it really draws you in to an intense moment of fear,you start thinking what the hell is going on,as things start to get more intense this film throws you into a weird mind trip as the apparition is playing with their mind in order to take their soul so it can live in their world.This film is seriously intense & frighting in place's that make you want to hide behind the sofa.It set a tone for the film that some door should be left alone & some door should never be opened. purgatory is no joke there are more that just ghosts & demons there,there are things that are beyond evil what i mean is pure dark.the concept of this film set that tone as things start to get worst for the couple in the house.the ending will really freak you out & shock you.

Dislike: Just a little slow in places,but apart from that this film was good.

Overall : if you looking for a film that will freak you out & play with your mind this is one to watch atmospheric & dark tone that will leave you sleepless all night.

Rating: 4 out of 5 for entertainment / 8 out of 10 for chill's & intense frighting scene's
