The Innkeepers

Once upon a time there was a cute little movie that came out in 2009 called "House of the Devil", and I knew that when I saw the blood squirting violently all over the screen it would be love at first sight!  That movie was so well put together that I likened it unto Justin Bieber's hair, in that it knew where it wanted to be and what its purpose was.  Director Ti West is one awesome dude for creating that gem, and I hope that he answers my invitation to my 26th birthday party coming up, and if he doesn't then I'll just facebook stalk him to death... but I digress.  Needless to say there was a lot of anticipation coming from me and my wife for his new film "The Innkeepers", and thankfully it was just as good if not better than "House of the Devil".  In this movie Ti West steers clear from the "special effects" trend that so many other Horror directors seem to fall under, and instead he focuses on the atmosphere of the movie using his signature "build-up" scenes to create a powerful punch (kind of like Monster energy drink minus the crash) of an ending.  Even though I value this movie as much as my cookie dough ice cream in the fridge, it may not be for everybody because there isn't a constant flash of special effects bombarding the audience into a seizure induced coma.  But if you value a good old fashioned Horror flick being made by a man who doesn't seem to be afraid taking new steps in the genre, then this movie (much like your lungs, sternum, or pacemaker, or even cookie dough ice cream) will be close to your heart... then to your stomach, then to your intestine, then to your.. DANG-IT I WANT ICE CREAM!!

P.S. After my wife realized that I didn't give any hint what the movie was about, I thought it best to give you a sample, much like the samples of food you get at sam's club.  Claire and Luke are the Innkeepers (getting it so far) at an old Hotel that is a couple days away from closing, and before it's ripped to shreds for a baby gap, strip club, or hopefully an LDS Temple, they plan on staying up all night in hope of making contact with a ghost named Madeline (like the redheaded french girl) who died there shortly after her honeymoon.  now go gettem tigers!
