Here's another horror flick supposedly based on true events or something. Hmmm... Anyway, Peter Cornwell's "The Haunting in Connecticut" follows an innocent family moving into a haunted house. Virginia Madsen, Amanda Crew, Kyle Gallner, Martin Donovan and Elias Koteas star. Here's what online critics have to say about it:
• Latino Review's Ron Henriques: "This is one of those films you watch and wonder 'Why don't they just get out of the house?' Because the characters are stupid that's why."
• CinemaBlend's Mack Rawden: "'The Haunting In Connecticut' forgets many of the horror clichés we’ve come to expect, but unfortunately, it replaces many of those irritating unoriginalities with generic plotlines more common to film in general."
• Cinematical's William Goss: "For the twenty-, thirty-, forty-somethings who've seen any other movie with the word 'Haunting' in the title, there's not much new here in terms of frights, but if you'd been sold on all of those anyway, there's probably nothing stopping you anyway."
• Joblo's Arrow in the Head: "The outcome for this twat was that no matter how many FEAR PLOYS this one bombarded me with afterwards, be it via blurry shots, SAW-ish tight edition or mucho white flashes; I couldn’t be bothered to care."
• RopeOfSilicon's Brad Brevet: "'The Haunting in Connecticut' is hardly a bad film, it just isn't a film that manages to accomplish anything more than mediocrity."
