As usual it builds us a picture of the family etc and takes a time to build the tension but this one was ridiculous and so all the scares are crammed into the last 20 min. This family seems to find a lot of the shit funny (or funny enough to make a quip) for the most part. seriously who the hell would do that? I dont know if its bad acting but at no point did i get any genuine sense of fear from them. I say scares loosely cause it is just not scary atall. Heres a boo scare here and some cool camera stuff here, but its style over substance so in fact the scares look cool rather than actually scary (i say that, the first time they do it its like "ah cool" the 10th time?? im bored now)
All this it takes the whole series full circle and ties it all up- how did it do that?! i mean i must have missed that cause there's little conclusion to the story this made and what conclusion there was as previously mentioned, was rushed. Watching it i felt as if they had no story in mind and instead its about revealing Toby (which is a total anti climax IMO)
As i always say each to their own and this are my thoughts (and by the way the thoughts of my friend who came with!)) but if this is the grand finale, it was a massive let down to what started as IMO a great series of films. 3/10
