Anethor movie based off of a board game
Contains spoilers, click to show
So im not sure why this movie happened, but it happened. This movies prequel is better than this. Thats how bad this movie is.
DescriptionFollowing the sudden death of her best friend, Debbie, Laine finds an antique Ouija board in Debbie's room and tries to use it to say goodbye. Instead, she makes contact with a spirit that calls itself DZ. As strange events begin to occur, Laine enlists others to help her determine DZ's identity and what it wants. As the friends delve deeper, they find that Debbie's mysterious death was not unique, and that they will suffer the same fate unless they learn how to close the portal they've opened.
So this movie makes no sense at all. Also micheal bay produced this movie so thats why its bad.
Dont bother watching this film, i would reccomend the prequel.

The Found-Footage Rebirth
After the huge sucess of the blair witch project, Paramount pitcures and blumhouse decided many years later to rebirth the found-footage movies. And this result was this and so many god damn sequels later.
Here's how confusing the timeline is and how many sequels this movie has...
The film is the first (chronologically, the third) entry in the Paranormal Activity film series. A parallel sequel and prequel, Paranormal Activity 2, was released in 2010. The success of the first two films would spawn additional films in the series: the prequel Paranormal Activity 3 in 2011, and Paranormal Activity 4 (the sequel to the second installment) in 2012. The fifth installment, The Marked Ones, was released in 2014, and the sixth installment, The Ghost Dimension, was released in 2015.
So really this is the third movie in the franchise, but it came out first, than a prequel/sequel with the 2nd one, than the prequel with the 3d one, than the sequel to the 2nd one which is actually the 4th movie. Makes any sense, no!!!!! Confusing fuck yes!!!!!
Anyways the plot: Soon after moving into a suburban tract home, Katie (Katie Featherston) and Micah (Micah Sloat) become increasingly disturbed by what appears to be a supernatural presence. Hoping to capture evidence of it on film, they set up video cameras in the house but are not prepared for the terrifying events that follow.
Its very slow, its not that scary, nothing really happens, just people watching footage on a computer, repeat that couple of times, make sure who ever is holding the camera make it shake and out of focus. Also Cameras!!!!! So Many Cameras.
This movie was so overhyped and in the end that was its downfall. That and not being actaully really scary. Makes this film, really not good.
Lastly shout out to @Sarah for getting the hints/clues for this movie correct.

Fantastic
I'd go so far as saying this is one of the best Star Wars films. It has a fantastic cast, great script and a thrilling and tense storyline. Gareth Edwards has turned a risky one off prequel into a brilliant and entertaining film. Felicity Jones is a great lead, and I think K-2S0 might be my all time favourite robot, the humour he injects into this film is spot on.

Awesome
There is nothing bad I can say about this game. It is the most emotional, thought-provoking, entertaining game around. I am a 30 year old man and it made me feel like a 15 year old girl. So many emotions and so much fun. I enjoyed it so much and am currently on my second play through, while playing Before the Storm, the prequel that was just released.

4-episode limited special of The Witcher prequel, framed as a tale being told (via mystical means) to Jaskier the Bard, and set more than 1000 years before the events of the main series.
I later heard that it was originally to be a 6-episode series, which might explain why the ending seemed rushed (after a slow start): this, I feel, was a series that just wasn't given enough room to breathe.

I absolutely fell in love with the original trilogy and couldn't wait to get my hands on the prequel. I am not disappointed.
This gave the reader another glimpse into the world of the trolls and what came to pass before the beloved trilogy and the epic story that followed. The pages are filled with love and a glimpse behind the mask of Marc.
If you loved the trilogy you will not be disappointed by this!

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Family Ties (Captured #3.5) in Books
May 7, 2019
this is a novella to the capture series, you can read this before the other 3 books or after. this is a short prequel to the series that you'll want to read. this is a very well written novella that you just have to read in one sitting. this novella is heart wrenching from the beginning and makes you want to read the the other straight away.

An extremely good book. It is rare that I find a book that I just can't put down, this book is one of those. It is a cross between steampunk, classic literature, and X-Men. This is the first book in a series there is also a prequel about Finley before the events of this book! If the rest of this series is a good as this one then I will devour the rest in no time.

A great coming of age story. Both serious and funny. The book is broken into two parts the first is about her upbringing and the difficulties of being seen as less than... The part two picks up in the same time that chapter one does and goes from there.
Although you're supposed to read this second as it is a prequel (to the Blue Sword) it is a good stand alone/read first book. I highly recommend.

A nice surprise!
A surprising good Horror film that is definitely different to the normal Slasher. A small group hire an old barn in a remote area to make an adult film. The old couple on the farm find out which lead to a series of events to unfold.
For a low budget indie film it was really good, creepy, sinister, with good gore effects as well. A prequel Film Pearl was made at same time.
