Review:
Finally a decent movie that had plenty of moments that snuck up and made
you jump in your seat or where ever else you might be vegging out to
watch this. The Haunting Of Rebecca Verlaine was just what the doctor
ordered. A reviewer does get tired of watching the same old things. Bad
movies are like kryptonite to superman; they drain you and almost kill you
with their same stories only told by a different producer. Rebecca lived at
the Verlaine farm with her father and a bunch of other hippies. One night
someone comes and brutally murders everyone in the house but her. Don't
get me wrong, she was attacked but for some reason she manages to stay
alive. Her Aunt and Uncle adopt her and she grows up unknowing who she
really is, until scary flashbacks occur as her brain tries to filter out the truth.
The ghosts of the hippie commune victims were pretty gory and added to
an already spooktacular atmosphere. There were lot's of blood and gore for
all of us out there that aren't happy till the red spills. It kept me interested
for the entire 91 minutes which is a great feat in the movie watching
business these days and I am far from kidding. Independent or big release
company’s aren't pumping out anything new. If you like a tale of the
supernatural, ghosts or even cannibalism Rebecca's Haunting is one of the
2004 releases you'll need to get. I wasn't thinking this would be as good as
it was. I mean it's not going to blow you out of the water completely but I'll
tell you this much, they put in a great effort to make this film presentable
and not seem like something that was throne together for a quick release.
