I think it looks interesting.

Yeah saw a trailer months ago and have been looking forwards to it since even though the director isn't much.

I see real Adoption agencies have been sticking their noses in... it's a fictional film for gods sake, not a documentary on Adopted children.

Personally I think this film looks like garbage.

Scary kids aren't scary.

h ow about the twins in the shining? or the kids from children of the corn? or carol anne from poltergeist?

The twins in The Shining is the ONLY exception I can think of. All the others, nope, not scary at all. The girl in this movie isn't scary either, just annoying.

The kids on that show "A Haunting" were pretty creepy, although... that was an all around creepy show.

The film actually looks great. I'm expecting a great storyline.

Agreed, kids do not scare me one bit. What're the little mugs gonna do?

As I told my father, "I kind of want to see this movie, because it looks bad, and 'cause it looks like it might be good."

A friend of mine went to see this, he walked out after 30 minutes and got his money back.

Said it was trash, and he likes Peter Sarsgard.

Yep Im so happy it bombed!!

Have you seen it? Why would you be happy a film bombs?

I only say that to movies that are worthless and waste of ti me

Have you seen it?

the kid from the first Pet Cemetary was creey

No he wasn't. The movie's fun though. Not scary at all. But fun.

I can't even remember the kid from Pet Cemetary.

Hopefully going to see Orphan today, so will see what it's like.

Not scary but a creepy one was the little girl from the Korean Horror film Phone. Good little actress.

This scene especially. Her scream at the 42 second mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_wMjMKvfrw

LOL yeah that kid is silly. He makes me laugh.

Solid film. Not your typical horror.

7.5/10

no no I dont plan to until it comes out to rent. why do you keep asking?

I wanted to know because of your hoping it bombs and so on comments, when you haven't even seen it... Why want a film to bomb when you haven't seen it yourself.

Well I for one despise current american horror films. They are not the same. They are silly and very predictable. I perfer the older horror movies which were excellent and quite scary. Im just tired of the remakes if not lack of story!!

The movie is not that amazing. I was hoping it would be a lot better than it was. That said, it had its moments, but overall it was meh, for me.

It's a loooong movie, and at points you kind of feel its very long, on the other hand it put a lot of effort in showing the girl and her twisted ways and things she did...etc

You do guess 'her secret' before it is reveled, and I was not all that amused with it.
Just wait for it on DVD or borrow it from someone.

My friend said it 'sucked the dick'. I'm scared to see this movie, in fear of it being a waste of money...

I think the only time a kid in a horror movie is scary is usually when there not trying top be, anyone notice how people were scared of the kid in the original omen but not the one in the remake?, I think its the perception of innocence that made the kid scary. When they put all the black make up on them and try to have them look evil it comes off as more pretentious than anything.

I'm quite surprised, a newspaper film critic here who gives most, and I mean most, films here either a 1 star rating or a turkey(deserves no rating because it's so crap), gave Orphan four out of five stars.

He also said some scene in the film he was very surprised with because he has never seen it done in any other film?

It does not deserve that. I have no idea what the dealio is with the film critics.

I did not like the movie, I did not like Book of Blood, I did not like a lot of ones I went to see, upon my great dissapointment.

But this one had potential to be good, but it wasn't it just simply was not.

You never know. But she dies at the end doesn't she, so he would be upset! therefore giving it a lower rating?

Ohh the things that could have been

I don't know why a lot of you do not like this movie to me it was one of the most insane movies I have seen.

Granted I rarely watch Horror films or Thrillers. I checked out a lot of reviewers for this movie and a few of them said there were heaps of 'Jump Scares' there were absolutely no serious jump scares.

Now I am going to be posting a lot of spoilers so to make it easy i am just going to put the whole thing in spoiler tags.

I fail to see how you could guess That she was actually a 30+ year old woman who had faked being a young girl to get into an orphanage to get into a family to break it apart and seduce the father. Which if she couldn't seduce the father she would kill them all and burn them.

Because it sets the premise that something was wrong with the mother i.e She was taking pills and she had that dream in the beginning. It also 'told' the viewer there was something wrong with Esther, and the viewer is led to believe that it was because of surviving a raging inferno that killed her family.

I have heard some people calling it ludicrous? How so? The movie is explained intricately and makes sense more so then Die Hard 4.0, Twilight and Harry Potter. It does suspend ones belief unlike all of those.


Anyway I thought this movie was better then my previous No. 1 film Pirates of the Carribean which is now slotted alongside Pandorum. The best thing about this movie was that I thought this most of the way: Holy shit Esther is awesomly crazy and shit is getting ****ed up.

Also this movie is not scary and it doesn't try to be. It kind of works like Silent Hill.

You have Orphan as your no.1 film ever...

Why don't you suggest a better one.

I'm asking? of all the films in the world, something like Orphan is your number 1 film ever.

You just need to find the favourite films list in the main section to find hundreds and hundreds of better films.

Well it's certainly not worthy of number 1 film ever... seriously.

Anyway, I saw this last night and enjoyed it. I knew the twist before seeing it though but really liked the change in the character once you find out she is really 33 years old.

Brilliant acting from the actress who played Ester. One of the better horror films to come out lately, but it's not a classic.

My jaw is dropped.

Does anyone know the ringtone Esther's mom uses in the film?

Do you have a link to a scene with the mobile tone in?

^ its at the very end of that clip

I have no idea, but is that an iphone? maybe someone who has an iphone could go through the default tones they have on it, sounds like a ordinary tone that's already on the mobile when you get it.

Or whatever phone make it is.

Yeah, I thought it was a iPhone also, so on MY phone I had downloaded a couple of ringtone apps simply typing in "iPhone" hoping I would bump into it, but have had no luck so far.

This movie was boring as shit. If you want to watch the good version of this then go watch, Case 39.


Other than Esters cool accent, this entire movie was a waste of my time.

Case 39? all I've heard is mostly rubbish about that film...

It's nothing amazing but i liked it a lot. Although, i'm a sucker for well executed demon movies. It may be just as predictable as Orphan but It's fast, to the point, fun and even a little creepy at times. It was also nice to see Renee Zelwegger try her hand at horror.

Wasn't she in one of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre sequels?

She was in TCSM : The Next Generation -- along side Matthew McConaughey(who had a robotic leg that was controlled via TV remotes). Probably wasn't the best career choice for two people from the Romantic Comedy stable.

Is he the one who cross dressed in it...

Nah, I don't think McConaughey's character went dragg, I only remember 'ol Leatherface wearing fishnets and a dress... really gross. It's been years since I've seen it... I can go without ever seeing it again.

Best horror film,I have seen in a long ****ing time

It did benefit from two very good castings for the parents, and the actress who played the adopted daughter was very good, especially her change from 'child' to her actual 'adult' age in the film .

Film was aight!
I actually guessed the twist.
