LOVED THIS MOVIE. Sara Paxton has never been hotter and she fit the role perfectly. Healy was great and original as well. If you like a good ghost story with original characters, you cant miss with this!
Sara Paxton's performance was really patchy although Pat Healy was excellent, overall the movie was slooow considering how many opportunities there was to create something scary and if you spend two minutes thinking about the plot it makes absolutely no sense. I also hate it when characters do the dumbest thing imaginable, but all in all it was pretty good.
I REALLY enjoyed it, and thought it was super well done. It was unexpectedly hilarious, and really creepy at points. This is def Sara Paxton's best, she finally shows some potential and breaks out of her typecasting. I loved the disturbing ending!
It's not that weird. On demand has been doing this for a while it's there "before it hits theatres" or "not yet released in theatres" category. Certain films, usually independent type, are released on demand for $6.99-$9.99. I've been watching certain movies this way for a while, and it's especially useful for movies that do not come to my area. You won't find stuff like Mission Impossible 4 on there, but this was the method I used to see All Good Things.
i've finally watched this last night (after waiting for it for 2 years!) and i thoroughly enjoyed it! i liked how silly and fun it was, and when it got down to the creepy and really terrifying parts, ti west knew how to deliver. the basement scenes were brilliant IMO! really fun and entertaining movie; but as you said -- not for everybody.
i still think that ti's "the house of the devil" is better, but "the innkeepers" is still good nonetheless. definitely a great, fun, little ghost chiller :)

My fave bit was petite Sara Paxton struggling to haul a big bag of garbage that is dripping trash water and toss it into a dumpster twice her size, bits like that were real and funny. I think the reason this film has taken so long to come out is that it's hard to market a movie that mixes comedy & scary. The Innkeepers trailer just looks like a typical ghost movie, like Insidious as you mention but the tone is very different. It's like a Ghostbusters-The Grudge mashup that works great.
Hey Shawn, you're right about this movie, that it's creepy, that It's the best work Sara Paxton has done. What you didn't mention is how funny it is. I saw this at SXSW 2011 and the whole first half was hilarious and the comedy was so real, the comic relationship between Paxton and Pat Healy is what makes the film for me, the second half is where the scary part takes over. That's the difference from House of the Devil, both have a slow burn, but Innkeepers uses humour to occupy the build-up.
I'd say that a lot of movies now are about not showing the monster. It's really a good technique because it requires more imagination and it draws more excitement. My only hope is that horror movies relive the golden era. I really want a classically trained actor to play Dracula without any CGI. Truthfully I think that CGI can't even come close to the perfection of movies like John Carpenter's "The Thing."
btw movie sounds awesome!! absolutely loved House of the Devil, one of the best horror films to come out the last couple of years. Fucking awesome that this is done in the same 70´s / psychological horror style.. great!!

Man, Sara Paxton is sure in a lot of horror films. Let's hope this is better than Shark Night 3D lol.
