Sinister
When it comes to scary movies, I've lowered my expectations to such an exacting degree, I feel like if even 10 minutes are good then it's cause for a horrorgasm. So break out the cigarette, and let's bask in the afterglow of the generically titled Sinister. It's not entirely a toe-curling success, but it's no slouch either—there are many genuine scares, a disturbing and lurking menace, and the eeriest mid-century house haunting since David Lynch's Lost Highway. Was I scared for more than 10 minutes? Yes! Was there a good bad guy? You betcha! Let's cuddle!
