David Roggenkamp Sarah is (assumed college age) spending some time with an older woman that also helped with her childhood friend (now dead). She runs into some car trouble pulls into a mechanic; she learns of the tale where a man has sword revenge on a boy (now a young man) on his 21st birthday. She gets a ride and learns the woman also knows the boy; his 21st birthday is Monday.The movie spends a lot of time getting into the swing of things, but also spends a great degree of time with characters talking. The acting tends to be flat, monotone, or otherwise believable, but the combination of these means the movie also falls flat. The movie never approaches the degree of say cinema blockbusters, nor does it have the pacing and computer graphics there of. After the first hour I gave up trying to watch it for anything to happen - it doesn't exactly transgress like many horror movies do; instead it looks as though it was meant to be the following of a life altering moment for a girl as she is new to her adult years. Fast forwarding through the movie did reveal some specific moments where paranormal activity did occur; but it seems this movie is more of a supernatural drama than anything else.If you enjoy supernatural drama, this movie may be for you; but it appears to be a low budget b-grade movie without the b-grade moments that separate b-grade movies.Originally posted to Orion Age (http://www.orionphysics.com/?p=10760).

aimless-46 What appears to have happened is that in 2007 Miley Cyrus suddenly gained 40 pounds and was checked into the Comrie weight loss ranch under the assumed name of Rissa Walters. Prior to taking off the weight she made a movie with assorted members of the Comrie family; it was intended as the first of a series of "around" the house films featuring the Sarah Landon character. But Miley was able to lose the weight and she left the ranch to go back to being Hannah Montana again.There's something student film charming about "Sarah Landon and the Paranormal Hour," which features some of the worst acting and "acting for the camera" direction that you are likely to find anywhere since that long series of Japanese "Godzilla" films back in the 60's. Still it's not a horrible script and the suspense is laid back enough for it to be suitable for young children and for nursing home residents with heart conditions. So it does have a target audience.In her movie, Miley becomes embroiled in a family feud when she visits the small town home of the grandmother of her best friend, after the friend has been killed by a drunk driver. It's all about revenge from beyond the grave as a Hulk Hogan look-alike demonstrates that there is someone who is actually a worse actor than the wrestler.Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.

rrrogster Laughably awful....I can't remember when I saw something so badly produced, directed, acted, etc. That the producer has money there is no doubt, but no class or brains. There is an awful rumor this entire family still lives together in the same house somewhere in San Diego. How creepy is that? I would say far more than the joke they produced here.Maybe the parents of these twisted and overgrown, "adolescents", should screen another movie of a more relative subject, "Failure To Launch". Just check it out.We can only hope the moron who is flushing his money down the toilet making crap like this will soon find something else to occupy his time.

moldyqueso Contains some spoilers, though there isn't much to spoil!The story takes place in Pine Creek, where Sarah Landon visits a friend's home, Megan, who has recently past. After having mysterious car trouble, Sarah is forced to stay perhaps longer than she wanted to. Circumstance leads her to an old childhood friend, Matt, and a town legend involving Matt's brother, David, which is the main backdrop for this film. A car accident occurred thirteen years earlier that claimed the life of one of the town's young sports stars. The grieved father claimed that he would seek his revenge against the victim by killing her son, David, on his 21st birthday. The angry father then dies, but appears in ghostly form from time to time causing David's mother to have a nervous breakdown. David burrows into seclusion, researching paranormal phenomenon in hopes he can prevent this ominous act from happening. Sarah, with the help of David's brother Matt, try to help David thwart the inevitable. I saw this film merely from the perspective of a parent hoping for a decent movie to take his child to. My daughter is still very young and can't see anything too scary. The moment this film started, I was left with an overwhelming and uncontrollable realization...the acting is terrible! I'm not one to notice bad acting, unless it is lousy. Also, the story didn't make any sense. If you're that upset about a loss of a child, are you going to wait 13 years before you seek vengeance? The cinematography, background scenes, transitions and character framing all looked decent enough. It looks like this film was written, produced, directed and starring all family members which is great, but they are not actors. This movie would've been a hard thing to watch if it was a made-for-TV movie. The fact that this made it to theatrical release is quite sad. The scariest part I found about the movie, was when they said "Little did I know, that this was only the beginning," as this is the first movie planning for a series. Overall, very little entertainment value no matter what the age group and a waste of time and money.
