From literally the opening credits, they created an intense, haunting tension that didn't leave my body till several whiskeys and half a Xanax later. Instead, they used just about everything else in their arsenal to scare the bejesus out of me and everyone else in the theater (my girlfriend included). ![]() I was also expecting to see some blood and guts, especially coming from the guys who made Saw, but there wasn't a drop. She, incidentally, didn't make a peep thankfully, I later found out she had her eyes closed the whole time. Keep in mind I was consciously trying my hardest to keep my composure, mainly because I was sitting beside my new girlfriend of 2 months. In fact, there were several points during the film where I screamed like a 13-year old girl at a Justin Beiber concert. ![]() After watching the move and obsessing on it for about 12 hours now, I can honestly say it's one of the scariest movies I've ever seen. I went into this movie confident that it would be a cheesy, campy romp with the same "tried and true tricks of the trade," like when the hero is investigating the creepy music coming from the basement and a cat jumps into frame, but I quickly discovered that this would not be case with Insidious.
