Watch Thir13en Ghosts For Free

So much average

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Thirteen Ghosts is a very poorly done horror movie. The film gets just about everything wrong. I love Tony Shaloub in the show everyone knows him from, Monk. But in this movie, I really didn't care for his performance or his character. He didn't really make you care about him, and the other characters were kinda hard to care about too, since the film didn't develop them in any way. The actors didn't do their characters justice and the plot didn't allow for development of them, double failure. The plot itself is pretty poor and uninteresting too, you won't finish this movie and think that it was interesting, you'll think that it was an opportunity missed, a failed attempt. The movie did nothing to keep your interest, it simply told an uninteresting story filled with equally uninteresting characters. If you're looking for a scary movie that's actually worth watching, then I suggest The Others or something like that, because this one falls flat. The only thing I can say for it is that the visuals are kind of interesting but that's the only somewhat good thing about it. 3/10 for Thirteen Ghosts.

This film is the remake of a film with the same name directed in 1960 by William Castle. The plot is similar: Arthur Kriticos is a modest man embittered by the death of his wife when he receives the news of a great inheritance left to him by a uncle, Cyrus, who was very rich. In the inheritance is included a huge and very modern house that Arthur doesn't know to be haunted by a collection of evil spirits that his uncle hunted and imprisoned. The film has a truly frightening opening sequence that shows us how this man hunted and trapped the most cruel spirits. But then the film calms down, takes on a more cadenced rhythm and builds the ending, on a plot simpler and more psychological than one might expect. Suspense isn't effective as it should, some script solutions are forced and unnatural, even resorting to obvious clichés. There are several scenes of graphic violence somewhat shocking but this is not scary, it's disgusting. In contrast, the film is visually pleasing, with proper cinematography, good special effects and sound and an extraordinary setting. The house is something like I've never seen, combining tradition and modernity with a sinister touch, and the subplot around it was a plus point for the film. Tony Shalhoub (who still remembers this actor in Monk?) did a good job as lead actor and F. Murray Abraham also pleased me. I didn't like Matthew Lillard, overly theatrical and exaggerated to the point of being humorous when he shouldn't. The rest of the cast was OK and did their job without surprising, disillusioning or highlighting.

I love this film when I was growing up, and when I first watch it, it was scary to me like the ghost are scary like I was covering my eyes when I watch this movie as a kid. This is my most favorite film from Dark Castle, and this is a film to recommend for people that are new to Dark Castle.This is my favorite reboot.I didn't even know this film was a remake, and the make-up effect are gruesome looking.It was sad when Dennis died. I think Matthew Lllard was a good actor in this movie. I don't care what people say that this movie is dumb, and stuff like that. I think this film is better than Prom Night (2008) it wasn't a very good movie at all but Thirteen Ghost is better like in the movie they weren't over-doing it like running, and hide but this movie they ran into a room with spells that the ghost can't come in. I wish this movie show some other ghost, and I understand the using C.G.I is expensive but I don't care if this film over use C.G.I it still the same film to me. This movie is awesome!

I really enjoyed this movie. It's not the scariest in the world, it just makes you jump occasionally. But I thought the plot was rather good and had an interesting twist in the middle that I wasn't expecting. I like the idea of the Black Zodiac, and as I have the DVD I got to find out each ghosts back story which I found really cool. It also has quite good CGI in some places (every long shot of the house from outside is CGI, which I didn't realize until I watched the special features). Overall, a pretty good movie (don't be put off by the fake-looking blood at the beginning when the truck sprays it out in the car dump like me and my friends did the first time so we turned it off at that part- but it gets better :D )
