The Haunting in Connecticut

The Haunting in ConnecticutI had totally forgotten about the new Haunting in Connecticut movie until I came across the latest poster. This movie is based on the true events of the Snedeker family who moved into an old funeral home in Southington, Connecticut. That alone should tell you where this is going, a not so cheery place.

It got so bad that The Warrens of the now infamous Amityville case were called in to investigate. John Zaffis, a nephew of the Warrens who was also part of the team witnessed an apparition appear with the noise of a thousand flapping wings and a stink so bad he could hardly breathe. This is definitely “soil your grunts” type of stuff.

Review: Splinter

Splinter

It was an okay movie, and I did enjoy a couple of scenes. But would I watch it again? NO!

I had high expectations for Splinter, especially since it was an independent horror film, but I’m not going to use that as an excuse to give this film any credit. Camera work was good and steady and casting was okay. But in the end it was just another, “seen that, done that horror flick”.

Dangers of the Paranormal

Dangers of the Paranormal

Maybe I watched the Exorcist too many times or maybe it was the heavy dose of Sunday school I received as a kid, heck it could’ve even been those flying monkeys from the Wizard of Oz, but part of me has always been a bit nervous delving too deeply into the paranormal realm, specifically investigations. And it seems like there are more and more cases of paranormal investigators bringing home unwanted guests.
