LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Solomon Terra Lots of ideas being bandied about, but I'm pretty sure I get what's happened. Major spoilerage, though, so don't read if you haven't already seen the movie - but might.That said... I'd wager that everyone was already dead at the beginning of the movie. The couple were ghosts who didn't realize they were already dead, thus the girl whispering, "Don't open it" in her sleep near the beginning of the movie and then again at the end just before revealing her corpse. After panning across her corpse at the end, you could see that the chain was hanging off the door - it was already unlocked. That's the way the door was near the beginning, when Alex first opened the door to let David in - he noticed the door had already been unlocked and the chain hanging there, and had to go back into his apartment to retrieve the key so he could lock it again.David, too, was already a ghost by that point. As was the woman in the apartment upstairs - though I suspect she wasn't one of David's victims, but just another ghost living in the building. It's possible that the playing with the lights _could_ have been the living, who they couldn't see - kind of like in "The Others".That's my guess, at least. Makes more sense (to me) than some of the other speculations I'd seen. I don't see any parallels to "Paranormal Activity" at all, and in fact would say this movie exceeds the PA franchise by a great deal in terms of quality.

freddy54-211-469054 I have seen this film twice and after the second viewing, I came to the conclusion that although flawed, the film does contain several unsettling scenes. Overall, I think it is a study of the mental disintegration of the central character, David. How this is achieved is partly through the inclusion of some of the most gruesomely imagined monsters ever to appear on screen. The fact that we only see them briefly and often in half-light is a bonus. By the end of the film, I understood that all four characters are going through a groundhog day experience, from which there is no escape. This is what makes the film very disturbing, leaving a rather bitter aftertaste. We need more British horror movies like this, which show an imagination that no American director could hope to achieve without sacrificing credibility. I would also include "Salvage", "The Disappeared", "13 Hours" and "Outpost".

Amanda Soto Let me at least say that I liked the camera work right away (but could not stand the audio). I liked that there weren't any cheap gimmicks you almost always come across in the horror genre. But that's the only praise I can give this film. There was a lot of useless exposition and scenes that did little to nothing to further the plot. It lacked timing and it didn't use its effects to their full capacity. I didn't jump once during this movie, but I did get bored and wondered when the scary stuff was coming. The ending was predictable. The part where they're running around the building with nothing following them was just annoying. It had all the components that should scare its audience with unseeable things that are lurking in the dark yet failed miserably at utilizing them, because it showed what the monsters looked like too soon. It was frustrating because supposedly these things can prey on you even if you can't see them, but they never actually did anything (except at the very end). Also, didn't these people have jobs? Why didn't they just leave?

peter-kat Man comes to friends home. Stays over the night and a few days. Is possessed by demons ( no suspense about how they look !!! ). Bad ending ...I am sure that if you are on this page and reading this that you would have seen 1. Paranormal Activity 1 2. Paranormal Activity 2 3. Blair Witch Project 4. Quarantine 5. CloverfieldObviously you liked what you saw in terms of the POV camera play , the story lines, the strong story lines, not really being able to seeThe Possession of David O'Reilly is similar to none of them. It tries and it tries hard but fails miserably on all counts. The creature effects are amateurish, the story line is never explained clearly.Bad Bad Movie .... Please don't waste any money or bandwidth
