Okay so last night I watched an American Haunting and I can remember when it was in the cinema that people seemed to talk fondly of the film however, after watching this film last night I have no idea why! I usually like any type of film.. even if it is badly acted or has a simple storyline but this film really takes that biscuit! Rachel Hurd-Wood’s acting in this is absolutely awful! (I mean I would not even call it acting!) if something like that actually happened I really do not think that someone would respond in that way! The other thing that really annoyed me was every time she was in bed and this thing come in to the room she would run across the bed. stop and run across the other side of the bed and this would go on for like 5 minutes! if she wasn't dancing away from the demon on her bed she was doing it in the middle of the room with her friend! grr it makes me so angry because it is so stupid.
“This film is based on true events”
Well if this is true then they should do their research better because with story lines and acting like this it is very hard to even associate it with something real!
All in all I would not even rate this film. It goes in my collection with The Happening and Black Water Valley Exorcism as the worst films I have EVER seen.
