Review of Session 9

Session 9 (2001)
6/10
I'm not sure...
31 August 2004
Warning: Spoilers
This stank of The Shining, but on reflection I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing.

*Spoilers* Creepy in places, but far too many liberties taken with the characters - one who's afraid of the dark (sic) , one failed-laywer-turned-Hat-Mat cleaner (as you do!) with an insight into the history of the asylum and enough time on his hands to track down files, read case notes and listen to the Session recordings; the one who stole the other one's girlfriend. And I don't think the script helped much as some of the "group bonding" scenes aren't really up to much (is Haz-Mat cleaning really THAT intense??)

Maybe I missed the point here, but I'm struggling to make much sense of it. Man enters building, gets possessed by nasty spirits, kills everyone. Is it really that simple???

Having read some of the "alternative" views on the movie I think I might watch it again. But only "might"

6/10
