AKA: Shhhh..., Silence, The Doll, or Mary Shaw![]() IMDB Blurb: A young widower returns to his hometown to search for answers to his wife's murder, which may be linked to the ghost of a murdered ventriloquist. I am honestly SHAKEN we didn't have a thread 4 this already based on the search function cuz I coulda SWORE we did Anyway, this movie is STILL. a total mess, the ending just HAPPENS (& is very clearly a poorly post-production-edited, Saw-ripped nightmare...), the CGI is horrendous (particularly in the deaths...), & either which way this movie played out, it RLY wouldn't have a satisfying ending (I like Jamie 2 much as a charrie 2 accept him & every1 else dying in every version), BUT, I still think this is the most aesthetically plzing movie James Wan has ever shot becuz the color grading is GODLY w/ the ways scenes will have a blue or grayish hue w/ vibrant POPS of red, the sound mixing leaves me UNPREPARED EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. becuz unlike the Insidious/Conjuring movies the silence is genuinely tense w/out throwing in a cheap jumpscare immediately after-the-fact, & as far as antagonist go Mary Shaw is just simply underrated as they come w/ how in-depth her abilities were thought-out b4hand w/out just devolving in2 a string of cliches over the course of the movie (even if she's just another Freddy Krueger, I still love her overall #Thing™). So, if I'm being incredibly honest, this is probz my fav movie by James Wan just simply cuz I'm a total slut 4 dummy horror & the aesthetic of most of the movie wins out over its many shortcomings. #SrryBoutIt

Yeah, it's a lot, but it's worth it. I'm way too lazy to read and even I think it's worth it.
