7/10
What a twist in the end !!!
7 February 2012
The Uninvited was see-and-you-will-love-it thriller which had a smooth run until there was a solid twist in the end which will make you watch couple of scenes over the again. Anna has been just released from a mental hospital where she was being treated after her mother died in an unfortunate tragic accident. She happily goes back to her normal life to meet her darling little sister and her father. She soon realizes that her father is having a girlfriend who is staying along with them. As she starts living in the house , she is haunted by the spirit of her mother claiming her accident was actually a murder. She starts investigating about her mother's death and finds something which unravels an unsolved mystery. The Uninvited is a remake of a Japanese horror "The tale of two sisters". Japanese movies have always some interesting stories to be told and this one succeeds in the same. The screenplay is somewhat sluggish but it's the twist in the end which makes the film worth watching. The direction is decent along with the performances. The cinematography is captivating while the background score gives you a genre of horror movies. Watch this if you have liked the Grudge , the Mirror , the Shutter. Though not scary as them but it has some fine captivating moments : Good -3.5/5
