| User ReviewShawn Rvery cool Movie after recommendation by my good friend Micky. didn't expect much after reading the story, but some twists and good actors made this movie very enjoyable. |
| User ReviewTonya VVery entertaining and not predictable, which makes the movie interesting. |
| User ReviewDave JActually, this one surprised me! Pretty darn good! Great ending. |
| User ReviewGraham CSemi-original ghost story with ties to The Shining and Don't Look Now. Not especially scary for hardcore gore aficionados, but quite entertaining. Deserves a remake on a bigger budget. |
| User ReviewJohn PMade for tv movie, i enjoyed it. If you can get past the fact that the acting isnt to great and the main guy has eyeliner on........... good story quite creepy story too. |
| User ReviewTyga AUna historia de fantasmas extrañamente ochentosa, chiquita y sin alardes, sostenida a pura voluntad por gente que sabe hasta donde le da el talento para no embarrarla. Si hubieran más asÃ, ay,... |
| User ReviewPaul CThe film really did have a good creepy feel to it. It can leave the viewer feeling somewhat scared and it does get better near the end. The movie is also very suspenseful and leaves you waiting till the very end to see what the heck is going on. All the acting was pretty good, especially from Teri Polo who had the main role. Most of the story seemed to fit but certain things were placed in the film that really didn't need to be there. One scene had to do with Marnette Patterson's character near the end. Also there was about two or so minutes at the end of the movie that didn't need to be there. They couldn't of stopped at one point, but they had to take it just a little farther and to me it seemed like it almost ruined it. The film was decent but I did want more out of the scare factor. |
| User ReviewMohammed AEffective, grisly ghost story-perfect Halloween fare. Reminds me of Ghost Ship, but in an apartment building. |

| User Reviewjohn bBorrowing heavily from "The Sixth Sense", almost everything that "The Haunting at the Beacon" does well toward the beginning is ultimately undone by its unfortunate, cornball ending. With twists coming a mile a minute, only the most forgiving audiences will accept every impossible turn. |
