EricC.Mar 23, 20070Holy crap, JoJo. Are you serious? "Not for the faint of heart"? Go watch some Cronenberg and tell me how you feel (I suggest starting with Videodrome). If you had a hard time stomaching this laughably tame trash, you might just throw up your guts with real horror movies.

DanS.Feb 22, 20073Scary House? Check. Moody Teen? Check. Every other cliche' from every horror movie ever? Check. Yeah, take "The Amityville Horror", "The Birds", and "The Grudge", add crap, and blend them all together and then you get this movie. I only saw it cause there was nothing else to see, I didn't expect to be impressed, and I wasn't.

WilliamI.Feb 3, 20071One gets the sense that much of a decent script ended up on the cutting room floor; what got left in makes almost no sense, and certainly has nothing to do with the title (or even the previews).

TonyLFeb 8, 20070Ye Gods! This was a terrible movie. Can some one tell me how I can get some of those super fast growing sunflowers? Kristen, call Jodie and see if she can get you a part in her next film.

JoJoFeb 2, 200710It was really scary. The guy (about 30) covered his eyes the entire time. Thats how horrifying this movie is. Watch it, but not on a full stomach. This is not for the faint at heart. Enjoy the movie!

MarkT.Feb 3, 20072A laughing stock. The only reason I could give this movie a 2 is because it was, at times, enjoyable to laugh at its stupidity. Even when I tried to be scared, I could not help but laugh. It is just such a dumb idea, plot and movies. How could a moving house with stupid monsters ever be scary? It looks like they never will be, thanks to this flop.

SashaFeb 3, 20071Kind-of funny when it was not trying to be, but NEVER really achieved scares with its kiddy PG13 scares that only a immature kid might find scary. Real horror buffs who wasted there time on this movie know the truth, and that is that this movie sucks.

BradH.Feb 3, 20070It is amazing that such a high-budget horror film can achieve such cheap scares with such bad and unrealistic acting. Not only that, but this movie is easily the most predictable horror movie of the last 15 years.

SamG.Feb 3, 20076I actually enjoyed some aspects of the film. I thought that Jr. Actress Kristen Stewart and Jr. Director Oxide Pang Chun put up a good try. They both have a long way to go, as does this film, but it was mildly entertaining and managed to achieve some scares here and there. This is not to say it is anything but a failure, but from a optimistic point of view i give this a light F. 60/100.

JohnK.Feb 8, 20075I highly recommend this movie if you're looking for a small-town thrill. However, I was a tad disappointed. It wasn't very original, and I saw lots of elements from Amityville movies.

IainT.Jun 8, 20070I desperately wanted to give this film a rating of 1 but in order to do that I have to be able to come up with a redeeming factor that would warrant such an award but this Amityville/Poltergeist wannabe was so devoid of anything even remotely original that it gets a big fat Greek zero from me (see what I did there John Corbett, I'm so funny).

JenoMJun 15, 20071Painfully slow and predictable storyline, meaning no real plot. Seen-it-before people crawling on ceilings. Some of the worst acting and directing as well. Can't believe I got suckered in by the trailer. That's what I get for not checking here first.

38The Messengers is textbook, and the course it's teaching is HSL: Horror as a Second Language.

38It's a little sad that The Messengers is ultimately a good candidate for burial in a toxic waste dump because there are some good elements contained herein.

50The trouble isn't just that this haunted-house story, written by Mark Wheaton and directed by Hong Kong filmmakers Danny and Oxide Pang, is both formulaic and derivative. It's that it's completely free of atmosphere, the very thing that their 2002 "The Eye" had in such creepy abundance.
