Hurray for more generic horror films involving little children whispering in a generic creepy manner.Hide and Seek looks like shit, but at least Dylan Baker is in it, and he kicks hardcore ass.

I don't see anything generic about "Hide and Seek". There's an Oscar caliber young actress with an original plot, and I have a feeling it will do well, that is if people would take the time to SEE IT before making assumptions.
I mean no offense, but is she seen whispering in the trailers?

Now you people are LOOKING for reasons to hate this movie. Moving into a new house means it's an Amityville ripoff? My god, guys.
I for one am going to see it, and if there isn't a SINGLE LINE where she whispers to someone, I'm going to rub your ****ing faces in it, lol. 😆

She's whispering in almost every scene shown in the trailer.
The plot isn't original at all, some kid who has a "sixth sense" and can see things others can't, and communicates with something or another that's dangerous and killing people (The Ring). It looks like a very typical horror film that will surely have a generic twist at the end "Oooooo, Robert Deniro is the murderer, that's deep".

Gotta call you on this one, my friend.
The plot is as follows. David (DeNiro) and Emily(Fanning) lose their mother, making David a widower. They move to upstate New York and to get through the grieving process and move, Emily creates and obsesses over an imaginary friend in Charlie.
It's a real shame that everyone's going to out the cliches in favor of the originality when it comes to kids in Horror movies. Like Haley Joel Osment completely ruined any other young actors credibility in a horror film.
I'm not denying that there may be some cliches, which aren't visible in the trailer, but for anyone to be so naive as to write it off as another "Sixth Sense" movie is totally wrong by the plot alone. If you can find me another movie regarding a kid with post traumatic stress disorder and an killer imaginary friend, I'll eat crow.
That said, I just watched 4 clips and 3 trailers, and the ONLY time she EVER whispered was when she was counting, to herself mind you, (1-1,000, 2-1,000..) per the game "Hide and Seek". That's it and that's all. No other time.

Even some of the best actors have there bad movies.Its not the actually plot thats so much un-original its the whole creepy kid who talks to dead people or spirits or Ghost.Its been done a million times and they just have to give it a rest.
She is seen whispering in the trailers when she's telling the cop "im drawing you....dying"
Im not looking for reasons to hate it im just saying that it looks like crap and the whole creepy kid thing is getting old.
The plot is as follows. David (DeNiro) and Emily(Fanning) lose their mother, making David a widower. They move to upstate New York and to get through the grieving process and move, Emily creates and obsesses over an imaginary friend in Charlie.
Well obviously it isn't an imaginary friend if it's murdering people, obviously it's either a spirit of some sort or just a ploy to hide the real murderer who would thus be human (either the girl herself or Deniro). Either way, it's a terrorizing being that's killing people that only the girl can see (The Ring, the kid in that movie saw the evil girl, and blah blah).

As I said, this movie doesn't look original in any way, other then small technicalities as to why the girl is wierd, or the ploy that it's her "imaginary friend" who is killing people. Either way, the premise is tired. A wierd girl is the only witness to a being that is hurting/killing people. Not original in the least as far as teh basic premise goes.

I wouldn't call it a Sixth sense clone, but I would call it a very simplistic twist on the current trend of creepy kids in crappy suspense movies with a mindnumbingly simple twist. Basically a rehash, I really can't see this being an exception.
That said, I just watched 4 clips and 3 trailers, and the ONLY time she EVER whispered was when she was counting, to herself mind you, (1-1,000, 2-1,000..) per the game "Hide and Seek". That's it and that's all. No other time.
Her voice is not a blatant whisper, but it's kind of airy all the time, as if she's afraid to raise her voice. Talking in a very low, very sollumn voice, just like every other kid in these types of movies.
I can garuantee there will be some crappy twist at the end as to what "charlie" actually is. This much I'm sure of.
