HUNTED HOUSE IN CONNECTICUT MOVIE

The real high point of the movie is Kyle Gallner who gives a haunting performance as Matt, the cancer kid who can see the dead. Even with all of the clichés, this is a very well made movie which is worth a watch. That would be a kind of proof that this was a true story. Anyway, the thing which makes the movie a believable true story is the ending in which Sara says her son is fine and has no cancer now. Surprising, isn't it? Possessed animals are quite a hit among horror movie directors. A guy of faith to help them in their time of need? Check. Do we have parents who think he is hallucinating? Check. Do we have a kid who can see ghosts? Check. This film is clichéd and sort predictable upto a point. So, I had decided long back never to watch a horror movie by thinking that it was actually a true event. How many times have we seen a horror movie which proclaims itself to be based on true events? Most of the times its just a cheap trick to make more money. But now Jonah is haunting Matt and things start to get weirder as the days go by. During one of their seances, all the sitters around the seance were killed, except Jonah who was never found again. He had an assistant Jonah, who was a kid, and he was a medium who could amplify the nature of these seances. It was actually a mortuary in the 1920's, where Ramsey Aickman was famous for his seances which were attended by Harvard professors and all kinds of big shots. The father stays back at his job and only comes to Connecticut at weekends. The 5 children and her move into a cheap rental home, but it is quite huge. Sara Campbell (Virginia Madsen) and her husband, Peter Campbell (Martin Donovan) decide to move to Connecticut when the long journey for the treatment of cancer to her son, Matt Campbell (Kyle Gallner) is taking a huge toll on his body.
