Watch Apartment 143 For Free

i must have seen a different film!!

Good start, but then it gets ruined

The movie is wildly uneven but lively and timely - in its own surreal way

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Hired to debunk a supernatural phenomenon, a group of professional ghost hunters find their latest quarry has taken them to the site of a real demonic being obsessed with seeking revenge against its targets and forces them to try to stop it.While there was enough to like here, this one really turned out to be quite mediocre overall. The main issue here that holds this one down is the fact that there are no real surprises in store here for the duration of the film, offering plenty of routine and rather expected scares here that tend to pop up continuously in this. While much of that has to do with the rather flimsy storyline here that doesn't make much sense about their involvement, we get the usual running footsteps in the hallways despite no one being there, inhuman banging and growling from the other side of the walls, smashing objects with ferocious intensity despite no one being in the room and the flash-bang images of someone running through the frame behind someone not paying attention which tends to cause this one to feel so familiar and routine here as these are all to be expected in these kinds of movies without much deviation to be found in this. It gives the film a wholly familiar feel that this has all been done before numerous times over, especially with the fact that this one goes for the paranormal-investigation-crew storyline about the group coming to a location with supposed activity and finding something far more dangerous than they expected which is such a route and cliché storyline that it really feels as though there's no real surprise or difference from what happens here based on that. As well, the focus on the team in the first half here ends up making the film a little slow-going to get to the haunting scenes as their admittedly-cool set-ups for their equipment and getting it all in working order makes for a rather long time before it shows off the haunting around them, and with the rather familiar scare-attempts here it tends to drag for a while until it gets to the good features. Those good features are mostly found in the later half here as some of these scenes come off really well with the particular highlight being the possessed daughter during the séance where she begins flinging everyone around the room with her glass-eye look and rather chilling raspy voice that begins hinting at a darker secret involved in this one. There's also a rather creepy sequence involving their quest to get to the source of the latest haunting through a hallway filled by supernatural wind-blasts that's quite fun and chilling which manages to keep this one going at a rather freaky pace throughout this part of the film as this is mostly just non-stop haunting scenes without much rest. As well, the fact that it tends to really go quite in-depth with the team's set-up in the beginning as they arrive at the apartment makes for quite a different introduction as actually going through all the different marks here is a nice touch. Overall it's got enough to make it watchable but there's still some pretty big flaws.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence, children-in-jeopardy and strong themes of sexual molestation.

The movie opens up with quite a strong and promising start, does OK in between but ends abruptly on a fulfilling note. The characters try to hold the story but you can easily see through it. There is hardly a twist present.Few chills though, in between but fails to create anything substantial to hold on. It fails to grip the atmosphere, that is generally required in these types of films. And Finally lemme get this straight,in the end, the so called Paranormal Experts are bunch of stupids, talking gibberish and has fancy equipment. I really wish that they had contributed something to the movie besides explaining the use of their equipment.

I love a good movie. I even love the occasional bad movie! I am also enough of a movie buff to be fair when watching a B film, but this film was beyond awful. I can only assume that the makers of Emergo (or Apartment 143 as it was titled on Netflix) decided to try to cash in on the popularity of movies like Paranormal Activity and make their own. They failed in a completely miserable way. What they ended up with was a stinker so bad, that I couldn't wait to inform you all not to waste 85 minutes of your time. A family is having difficulties here. Mom died and Dad appears to be doing the best he can for his two children. The teenage daughter blames him for her mother's death and hates him, and his young son is just a happy little kid that apparently is unaffected by anything. Now strange, paranormal things are happening in the house (ie: slamming doors, windows, moving furniture, etc.), and when Dad moves his family, the paranormal activity follows them to their new house. Now Dad hires a paranormal investigative team to help. Sounds like a movie worth watching if you like that sort of stuff right? Wrong! Here's the bottom line: Plot? Garbage. Premise? Garbage. Acting? Garbage. Dialogue? Garbage. Characters? Unlikable, unbelievable garbage (The "Doctor" tells Dad to relax and do nothing while his daughter is being physically hurt! Yeah the Doc was the worst character of all) Sound Garbled garbage Lighting? Dull garbage. Special Effects? A 6yr old could do better garbage. I'm so glad that if I had to watch this at all, I saw it on Netflix. At least I didn't waste money on a ticket. But I want my time back. I cannot remember the last time I was so disappointed in a movie... and I paid money in a theatre to see the Blair Witch sequel!

I had high expectations for this movie. I love movies about ghosts, and I love found footage movies. So, I figured this one would be perfect. I was completely and totally wrong. I enjoyed the characters and the back story. That's all I enjoyed though. During much of the movie, I had to turn the volume up all the way, and I still had difficulty hearing the dialog. Then, came the end of the movie. Here is a paranormal investigator, standing in a room with a girl levitating over her bed, and instead of focusing the camera on the levitating girl, the investigator goes back and forth from the psychologist and the girl's father. I actually yelled at the screen, 'Just point the camera at the girl!' I was also confused as to why this movie was in the found footage genre. No one dies. I would call this more of a mockumentary than found footage.
