Interestingly shot (on video) production, that starts off as a crime caper, then turns into a haunted house gore fest. I liked the creepy, atmospheric photography, which was accomplished with very little lighting, and the intriguing, although confusing premise, that appears to want to say something about facing (and embracing) your own demons. Whatever. It's a good independent effort, and I applaud the ingenuity behind it. Recommended for dedicated horror fans.

When is a Limited Collector's Edition 2-Disc Set not a bargain? When one of the movies is this one.
Ronnie Sortor wrote, directed, edited and acted in this low budget indie flick.
He also uses the same cast in all his movies, so if you like them in this film, they will likely be in another. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything to like about any of them.
Action got hot an heavy for a couple of minutes during the robbery, but then it died. Too many shots of actors just standing there supposedly thinking.
The worst part of it all was the dude with a gut shot. Now, I have never had a gut shot, but i would imagine it to be very difficult to be running through the woods, and up and down stairs in a house with a bullet in my gut. Just seems stretching things for me, and it really bugged me throughout the film to see the guy doing it.

I bought the VHS tape of Sinyster on eBay and it has to be one of the best SOV slashers hands down. The entire movie is very eerie and has a long dreadful feeling. The atmosphere and soundtrack is creepy and intense. This is a very good SOV flick that I would recommend to anyone that likes low budget horror films!
