Pretty sure I have the worst book/movie tie-in cover.



At least the other ones have pretty pictures. This looks like something you'd see as an example in a Photoshop thread for everything not to do in a design.

I watched it while I had a fever and still knew that it was poo poo. Don't waste your time on it.

I love the parents' guide on IMDB, though. "Most of the movie is gore"

Nice, but honestly it's less ridiculous than something like Final Fantasy VII, and way less ridiculous than Final Fantasy 13-2. There sure are a lot of the Fantasies, and none of them all that final.

I give Square a pass on that because they honestly thought FF might be the last game they released.

It was an EA initiative for a while, to make crappy animes of all their games. They did Dragon Age as well.

What if the reason you shouldn't go into the attic is because it's a (haunted) graveyard? Like, a sort of reverse Poltergeist.

You see, a town (of Indians) was buried in a landslide exactly ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO. Now, Goodville is a new community built on top of the bones of those dead Indians! Now the citizens of Goodville have something in the basement... the spirits of the dead trapped in their attics when the earth took them!

Boy that's loving complicated, writing horror movies must be hard work.

A guy moves into the new house to find his attic is filled with spirits. He also finds out that there are bodies buried in the basement. He needs to reunite the spirits with the bodies to be rid of them, but it turns out that there's a demon in the basement and this is the reason the spirits are hiding in the attic. So the main character, who happens to be a demolitions expert, sets off a series of controlled explosions that destroys the first and second floors of the house, making the attic sit right on top of the basement where the demon and spirits are forced into battle.
