Tetrady not as good as all the hype

Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

vishnu-dileep08 It all starts with a person who traps spirits in his house so as he dies he gives his house to his nephew and family so as they come to stay in this place the things they encounter are really scary.Story vise the concept was really good but the execution was really poor it just fell downward even the way the movie was shown to us would have been somewhat complicated and confusing to some viewers and this movie could not even hit those scare notes.Personally I would not recommend this movie to anyone.Notable ActingNobodyMy Rating 5/10

Nicolas F. Costoglou This is the rare instant of a movie, where i have actually no idea what they were trying to do...This is the directorial debut of Steve Beck known for his incredible effect work on great movies like "Indiana Jones the last Crusade", "The Abyss", and "Hunt for Red October". And it shows, because the production-design, the special- and make- up-effects (by the legends Howard Berger, Gregory Nicotero and Robert Kurzman) all look very good. BUT this is also the reason that this movie never feels like a horror movie, because there is no atmosphere, because of the lighting in particular, which is very bright, so you can see all the work put on screen. I understand why they did that, but that's one of the reasons this movie never feels scary, it looks actually more like a Disney family movie with out-of-nowhere gore and violence...The actors all do their job fairly well, but the emotional center (and strongest point) of this film is Tony Shalhoub. His performance is the main reason the key-scenes of this film actually work.However, the real main protagonist of the movie is definitely the haunted house. It's a kinda steam-punk-puzzle-clockwork and the main setting for everything that happens. It's not particularly scary to be in that kind of environment, and especially things like (Hellraiser-) ghosts feel very much out of place, but like i said, the make-up is very well done, it just feels wasted.The soundtrack is also very bland and i can't remember one single note to be honest...So...this isn't a horror-, sci-fi-, comedy-, family-, or mystery movie...well at least it doesn't feel like on of these genres.But everything's solid, nothings really bad, just unfocused and confused, like a child in a history lesson.The only reason it works, is because of the chemistry between our protagonist and his family. The movie actually introduces them in the most effective scene in the whole film, while showing the opening credits, this little 360- shot tells us everything we need to know perfectly and emotional powerful. If you don't feel like watching this, the intro and opening credits are two scenes you should watch nevertheless.A confused and unfocused film, with some solid entertaining value and a strong emotional core...

khaskins52 I haven't seen this, and will probably never see it. It seems to be not "up my alley", as I don't find this genre interesting. At ALL. I've never been really scared of anything that isn't actually POSSIBLE. Someone , hopefully, must know what I mean. Someone, hopefully, knows that the really scary stuff is that which really CAN happen.In real life. All I really wanted to say is that this movie's title is a pretty silly and weird title. Other than that, it's also a REALLY dumb title, but it's only my opinion, obviously, and anyone else is entitled to feel that it's clever, and whatever else....(?) HOW, exactly,is "Thir13en" supposed to be pronounced, anyway?? "THIR THIRTEEN EN"? Who thinks up this crap? I probably wouldn't see it simply because it has such a stupid title! Maybe I'm all alone here.Maybe not. (Hopefully not.)

Shopaholic35 A really solid attempt for a horror movie. It's something different that has aged really well. I found myself questioning what would happen next even though I had seen it when it first came out. Also the claustrophobic trapped factor is something that heightens the fear factor. Some horror movies are pathetic in the fact that all the victims need to do is walk out the front door but no that would be too easy.It's awesome seeing a cast that have developed so much over time and have just gotten better with age. Also the ghosts feel like characters themselves and it would be great to find out more about them. They seem so unique and I would love to know what drives them and their motives behind what they do. That may have made the movie comical and lacking fear though, kind of like Eddie Murphy's The Haunted Mansion. Oh and the Cyrus character is just plain old batsh!t crazy and kind of a jerk.But as far as horror movies go I really enjoyed it and found it to be full of suspense and fear.
