AM Poster Post: 'The Orphanage' is Pure Parentless Terror
November 5, 2007 Comments
I'll be the first to admit the little freaks in Children of the Corn scared the hell out of me as a kid, and those ghostly kids in the Japanese Grudge at least made me jump, but seriously, ghost orphans? Isn't this a step down?
I was already stretching to be scared of kids--even ghost children can be shaken to death, I think--but orphans? The only orphans I've ever known are either frail (Tiny Tim) or pleasantly musical (Annie), and both would be easy to throttle into submission.
I've heard this is good... but, come on, orphans? I can't decide what the next step should be: ghost kids in wheelchairs or ghost abortions?
