The Visit
PG-13 | 94 min | M. Night Shyamalan | (USA) | 2015
Review: I should have gone to see Gremlins at the midnight movies tonight.
Synopsis: A brother and sister go for a week-long vacation to visit their grandparents for the very first time. Upon getting to know their grandparents they learn that there is something greatly awry in their Pennsylvania farmhouse.
Grade: D
The only thing going for this review is that I had about four hours in the car to think about it prior to going on a massive stream of conscious rant about how disappointed I was. Frankly, the only thing scary about this movie was that immediately after the film I was attacked by my neighbor’s dog. The most humane way I can put this baby down is to argue why I was so let down by this film.
I noticed that several film sites bill this movie as horror / comedy. Spoiler alert…it was neither.
