Sinister tells a fairly interesting story with a well-positioned twist that very slowly becomes apparent, until it's fully revealed at the end.
It's not a great horror movie simply because there are a few things that are hard to accept as a viewer, starting with what would convince a man to move his family, with two young kids in tow, into a house where an entire family was brutally murdered.
Still, if you can overlook that and a couple other things, it's fairly enjoyable. Ethan Hawke does a pretty good job, flanked by Juliet Rylance and James Ransone.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Not a great horror movie, but not bad either. I'm not sure whether there will be sequels, but the story certainly lends itself to more chapters, thanks to that twist I mentioned earlier.
Grade: 6.5
