The Uninvited

I have no idea what just happened in this movie, who most of the characters were, and I have a raging headache. This movie left me cold, disappointed, very confused, and wishing I could have my 2 hours back. The characters are not really developed aside from the main character, Lee. The other characters aren't essential to the plot, are mostly absent from the story, and their interactions with Lee don't make any sense and do not drive the story along, so you don't care about them. It's nearly impossible to feel connected or even interested in the other characters. I've been sitting here for about 15 minutes trying to figure out what the plot was supposed to be and why the director failed to notice that the final cut of this film is a nonsensical mess. I'm terribly confused and angry, because I thought I would be watching the more recent film by the same name and my cable company failed to notice the difference.

Seriously, do not waste your time on this piece of garbage.

Incoherent and aimless. If you told me that someone made ~30 minutes of a movie and got run over by a bus, then the producers brought in a team of monkeys to randomly cut the remaining footage together so they'd have something to release then you'd have told a better story than whatever this was. Hardest of passes

I watched this movie on one of those days when you're ready to just sit back, relax and hopefully get treated to something really great that you just can't wait to tell somebody about. Well...it sucked, and now I feel obligated to sit in the reviewers corner with the other disenchanted viewers who kept waiting for something, anything, to happen in this film.

We generally give every film a fighting chance at least for the first 20 minutes right? Even if it's creeping along as the characters are developed and the plot is revealed,I can usually be fairly patient, but instead I found myself clock watching till it was almost over.

One of my biggest pet peeve's is the overuse of extreme darkness in a film, it's impossible to watch especially if you're watching a movie during the day, and there's ambient daylight falling on your TV. The only revealing thing about this situation is it shows you how many fingerprints are on your TV screen. With a four year old in the house, that means many.

As far as the characters I'm a little biased since I'm a huge Colin Hay fan, I wanted him to be good in this, but the script didn't allow it. Mr. Hay in my opinion is by far one of the most talented musicians out there however this script bound him to a mediocre at best character.

I thought the main character Lee was believable and as neutral in personality as Nick's, but perhaps it was the two like personalities,the overuse of darkness, and the "baby thing" thrown in at the last minute that left me with a feeling akin to buying that gotta have it gizmo thing from a late night info-mercial only to be sadly disappointed when you finally open the box.

All in all I think some good talent got sent straight to video on a slow train to nowhere.

well i saw this movie on television when i was bored and it was quite late in my room alone then this movie started i first mixed it with the other famous uninvited (2009), as i started watchin' it thinking' that i'm watchin' that famous one i really began to like it after a while i knew it was some other movie but it still had my interest, and the style they started this movie was also very interestin' tellin' some woman's past how she got some phobia n now she can't see in open space n stuff, well i hav to say it did'nt disappoint me that much as i was really scared at some moments, really got my interest thou there were some defects in the script could have been much better if they had taken the suspense and intensity till the end but it was'nt really there till the end. still i would say it is a pretty interestin', scary and enjoyable movie and i i'll suggest u guys to watch this movie with an open mind don't expect anythin' or make your predictions about the story.

There are plenty of films called THE UNINVITED but this has to be the worst to date. It's an independent production that looks and sounds like a ghost story but in fact is an aimless time waster, shot in a murky old house in the half-light for the most part, and charting the non-adventures of a young woman suffering from crippling agoraphobia.

THE UNINVITED is one of those films that makes zero sense to most people watching. There's a jumble of characters in the script, some bizarre, some very ordinary, and a handful of predictable scare scenes to make this a horror film, but other than that I didn't really have a clue what I was watching - or want to know. I don't mind a little ambiguity in cinema, but when a film is as wrong-headed as this one then it becomes an exercise in time wasting.
