I like Clive Owen, I really do. I’ve enjoyed him in everything I’ve seen him in, even if not all of those things were very good. But a haunted house movie? Really? I’m just getting a little bored with the genre, especially when it’s tied into a story about one of the family’s kids. Seriously, just pack your shit and move, people. To borrow a bit from Eddie Murphy’s Delirious — I love my house, the yard is beautiful, the decorations are lovely, but the second some shit starts moving on its own or shadows start doing funky things or I hear voices? We are dunzo. I’ll be out of there faster than you can say “get the fuck out.”

Anyway, here’s the trailer for Intruders. It’s a teaser, really, basically sixty seconds of spooky shit, followed by an annoying clusterfuck of imagery crammed into about 3 seconds of dizzily over-edited flashes. I admit, the trailer really did nothing for me, but who knows. It’s directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (28 Weeks Later), who is also supposed to direct the remake of The Crow, if that movie can ever get out of legal hell.

Could that get any more generic and bland? Christ, give me at least a little tease of something that might entice me to go to the theater. And, no, big booming music doesn't count.

The key there TK is that we don't WANT it to get out of legal hell.

Eh, I'm a sucker for this type of movie. It has to be REALLY TERRIBLE for me to not go see it, and I try to always take my favorite group of friends with me (one suuuuper jumpy, one who loves cheese as much as I do and will help make cracks about it afterwards and thereby transform it into a great time for all), so it's very rare that I don't have a good time at these things.

We went and saw Insidious and it was a total riot. Jumpy friend was jumpy (as were some girls sitting behind us). Snarky friend and I both noticed the plot's bizarre similarity to a side quest in Dragon Age 2, which led to a good hour of fun as we looked at all the equivalencies and made fun of them. It rocked.

Maybe it's not a ghost movie - maybe it's about evil wizards who are 2 feet tall and invisible. And they blink when they do evil magic. Or it's just about an evil vacancy sign that has escaped the neighboring motel. "Get out of the house!1"

I was all good to go on the trailer watch until you wrote "by the director of 28 Weeks Later." Clive is the tits, though.

are there so many haunted house movies that we should be tired of them? is this an over-used sub-genre?

what kind of blackhearted soulless golem doesn't love a good old-fashioned haunted house story?
