A mother and daughter move to a new town and find themselves living next door to a house where a young girl murdered her parents. When the daughter befriends the surviving son, she learns the story is far from over.

Read the script a while ago and while it had a nice twist and a creepy atmosphere, some of the dialogue was dreadful and I didn't really care for any of the characters. Not gonna rush out to see this in theaters.

What else has Jennifer been in besides Hunger Games (which is one of the most overrated things on the whole damn planet, blech)?
Winter's Bone, which no one here has seen but got good reviews

The new X-Men prequel movies

Ah. Still. Id hardly call her a big star or one of the best actresses ever. She did not impress me at all in Hunger Games...

I thought she was good in THG but not like amazing
She played her character EXACTLY as she should've been though. That just isn't a role that's enough to display major acting talent IMO :P

Okay, I saw it!

Here's my nonspoiler review.

So, I liked it. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. It was just average. You've seen everything that happens in this movie, and relies sometimes too much on the jump scares, but its pretty fun. I loved the acting. I loved Jennifer and Max, and they save the movie. While the story was just okay, I think they did terrific jobs. I think some things were poorly written. Some dialogue felt a little too silly and corny. But when it came to some of the highly action packed scenes, it was surprisingly satisfying!

So, overall, its not the best. You could wait for DVD for it, but if you're like me and went to see it for Jen, you will love it. It's a fun little movie, that at sometimes becomes a bit boring, and a bit too much with done to death cliches. I think the acting and final act are all saving graces to this film, and I would give it a 5.5/10. You should definitely check it out, don't expect anything outstanding. Only expect a small little film with some perks that make it a fun watch for audiences.
I'd like to add another rating, while trying to put my self in the shoes of someone who doesnt know/like Jennifer Lawrence (which is close to nearly impossible)- It would probably be a 4-4.5/10

LOL O________O

A 4-5 rating definitely doesn't sound like a movie worth seeing =U
