Apartment 1303

Apartment 1303

The US-Canadian co-production is the English-language remake of the Japanese film of the same name. It is an adaptation of Japanese author Kei Ôishi's novel.

Having grown up under the controlling grip of her fame-hungry mother (Rebecca De Mornay), Janet Slate (Julianne Michelle) jumps at the opportunity to move into what looks to be a great high-rise apartment in downtown Detroit. Yet some deals are too good to be true as one night her boyfriend Mark (Corey Sevier) finds her in the middle of the street - having fallen from the balcony thirteen stories above. When her sister Lara (Mischa Barton) tries to investigate the mystery of what happened, she moves into the same apartment and encounters the odd neighbors in the building, including an eerie nine-year old girl who seems to somehow know the real reason for Janet's fall. Lara soon realizes that her sister's death might spell the same fate for her unless she can overcome the strange events that are terrorizing the inhabitants in Apartment 1303.

REALLY SCARY MOVIE

Scary films make me jumpy so they tend not to be my first choice of watch. My brother picked this one up and I got roped into watching it by default. It's a good thing we had a whole load of people round as it is a very scary film.

It is done, not like your usual horror where the whole thing is at night, creepy, you know the type of anticipation for the bit where something jumps out, instead this is like a normal film, characters, a drunken has been popstar mother played my Rebecca De Mournay and her two daughters, Janet, Julianne Michelle and Lara played by Mischa Barton.

The horror is cleverly woven into the drama seemlessly which makes it all the more scary. It is subtle and not cheesy like some horror films.

I found it unnerving and unsettling. I have to say when I went to bed I was still quite edgy but if you like being scared off your ass this is a rent defo.
