I can't believe how many people find this movie good. It's one of the worst movies I have ever seen! It's just plain boring. The plot is way too easy. People say they cried? Why? I bought this movie having watched AND cried over "A Walk To Remember" and "The Notebook". And I was looking forward to another experience like with those. Boy, was I wrong. And let me tell you, I am a 30 year old male but I watched it with my girlfriend and my mother. Nobody was crying. We just shook our heads and wanted the movie to end. It was that bad. I read on the forum that someone watched it three times on the same night? Unbelievable! I will never watch this again, I might as well throw it in the garbage. So please take my advice and watch one of the other movies from Mr. Sparks, he couldn't have had a good day when he wrote this horrible story.

It's not very often that I write reviews on here (even though I love reading them!) but this one made me think that I have to warn others. This is one of the worst sequels ever! I'm a big fan of sequels myself. You can say that I "collect" them. If I watch a movie and it gets a sequel I GOT to have it. I love being in that first movie's universe. And I want to know what happens to the characters. Not with this one.

My girlfriend and I were looking forward to a Legally Blonde marathon today. We had both watched number 1 one time each but hadn't seen number 2. Boy, were we disappointed! Not only did they make the main character stupid again for this movie. But it's all about politics! Boring politics. Isn't this supposed to be a FUN comedy? Not a boring movie about laws, bills, hoppers and what have you! I'm gonna say it: we didn't understand half of what was going on. It was too confusing and difficult. So we turned it off halfway through. And with number one being that good?! I even cried a little during that one. And this bull... very bad!

I'm not one to comment on movies here on IMDb very often but I very much appreciate reading the opinions of others. Many times this has made me buy or not buy a movie. And let this be one of those comments that makes you NOT buy or rent this movie. I just watched it on TV but missed the first couple of minutes and didn't get the title. And all through the movie I was anxious to get to the credits so I could get on here and comment on it.

I sometimes read comments telling about bad acting in movies. And I think people exaggerate, sure not everything is worthy of an Oscar but mostly the acting in movies these days are OK. But this is not the case with Haunted Echoes. And it surprises me with actors that have been around for as long as they have. I think the exception is Barbara Bain, who is good as the crazy old lady. But it's not completely the actors' fault. The script is very bad, some of the lines they have to say! And the camera use and the whole feel of the movie... I was watching this with my girlfriend and she said it looked like a documentary.

OK, so it's low-budget, but then I'm thinking it would be better to spend time on another movie. At one point during this movie I pointed out to my girlfriend that not 10 seconds go by without something horribly embarrassing taking place. Be it a bad line, crappy special effect, stupid plot twist or misplaced music.

The only two reasons I finished watching this was that it was so bad it was a bit amusing and I had to finish it in order to comment on it.

So you are hereby warned; don't waste time or money on this.
