Last night I went to see “the orphanage” this was for the second time in a week, the only difference being that this time I went with my housemate and also with the useful knowledge when to anticipate a scare moment!! And believe me if you watch this film without jumping once you are incredibly special!!
The Film is not of a terrifying nature it’s just well timed and placed within the frame of an eerie setting…
To some including my flat mate such films are only valued for there shock appeal this may be true however on second viewing of this film I was also fortunate enough to be sitting just in front of another group of friends and could over hear the murmurings of “oh my god”….”oh don’t go down there, its dark and….!!!!!!” this all added another layer to the film which made it less of a horror and more of a comedy, with myself resorting to covering my mouth for fear of laughing out loud and instead chuckled at the tension that all of those around me had with the ever developing plot, this was a privileged position to be in and one thoroughly enjoyed….
