Dissapointed and surprised (spoilers)


I've heard people say it's a great scary movie; a great anthology of stories. Really?
Maybe I've got accustomed to horror films and grown a bit of resistance to scares, because there was nothing scary or interesting about the 3 cases. I bet it's the same people claiming this is scary were the people pushing Hereditary as "the scariest movie in a long time". Laughable.
Come one guys, how many times have we seen this before? A dark and spooky warehouse where the lights go out and flicker and noises being heard. A person is alone on a dark road and hits something and flips out. A creepy baby's room where there's a bit of unexplained movements from toys.
The boring part is that none of these cases are explained, until the end I suppose, where it's brushed away with the stroke of a twist and thus needing no explanation for anything.
I wanted to like this movie as the actors did a good job and it was well filmed, but it was just another rehash in the of Creepshow, VHS, and other films, with nothing memorable to bring to the table.
