Awesome Haunting in Connecticut Poster

The Haunting in Connecticut just released a motion poster:

I was already anticipating this film but that poster is awesome, best motion posted I've seen for sure.

Wow! Almost as good as the "Motion Poster" for FearDotCom and Frontier(s).

They should put it in an ad that runs constantly here.

So, is that a scarf he's barfing up? Wasn't this movie supposed to come out a long time ago?

Probably ectoplasm.

Re: Awesome Haunting in Connecticut Poster

The poster is about as awesome as the title of that movie is bad.

Yeah, that's ectoplasm that you see there. This is based on a true story (which is insanity) so I'm betting that maybe something like that actually happened?

There was a discovery channel special about it too a while ago:

Wasn't this the one where the author of the book said the family was heavy into drugs, and he was basically paid to make a scary book and use his imagination?

Isn't that how most of these "true life" haunting stories get made anyways. We have George Lutz to thank, I suppose.

Re: Awesome Haunting in Connecticut Poster

I've learned my lesson from the last time I saw a poster that made me want to see the film.

I have to say though, this poster is better than that one and also Haunting is based on a true story, Unborn was just made up. Love the true story element here, and I've heard that the discovery channel special on the same events was really creepy.

Re: Awesome Haunting in Connecticut Poster

Just got back from seeing this.

Pretty decent flick. Impressed with Kyle Gallner's transition from Smallville (as Impulse) to the big screen.

I my only issue with the film was that I kept thinking the Winchester Bros. were going to come in and save the day

Sam and Dean would have kicked ass! I just got back from seeing it. Decent movie with solid performances. Creepy images. Grade: 8/10.
