Review:
While I was trying to keep these reviews this month on a free basis, I could not help but add a few new rentals this month. So this one you will have to pay to watch, unless you can find it on youtube.

Do not come into this movie thinking its a remake, this is a reboot (two totally different things).  While the plot and consept are the same the character names and situation that the family moves into the house are different. There is no tall freaky man with a funky hat as the main bad spirit. The effects in this version are better than the original and the clown is even creapier. Taken the differences of the movies, watch this one as if it wasn't a remake but a whole new movie and you will love it. The acting is top notch, its got a modern edge that the original didn't have. Don't get me wrong, I like the original but for a new generation this version will more than satisfy.

If you can get past the creepy clown I would highly suggest you rent this movie.
