Film Filter: Off - Sinister


Sinister R (2012)

Ethan Hawke, Juliet Rylance, James Ransone 

Film Filter: On- When Ellison,  a washed up true-crime writer, decides to pursue a missing girl in a suburban town, he immediately finds himself getting the cold shoulder from police officials.  To top it all off his family is not pleased about the move either, as they have found themselves uprooted time and time again for his writing ambitions.  The icing on the cake in this scenario is that instead of moving down the street from the house where the murders happened, unbeknownst to all but Ellison, they have moved into it.  The rest of the film takes shape as the family struggles to separate their fears and memories of past horrific events from reality, until the line between the two blurs and slowly dissipates.
Things to note: Good cast, interesting story line, good scare tactics, unique use of sound and music, desire of more information regarding characters.
