The Apparition

Once you believe, you die? How bout once you don't use common sense, you die, since absolutely no one in this movie and everyone who anything with creating this picture was simply void of. I've seen so many supernatural movies where the characters do the most illogical things to come off as so unrealistic, but in some strange way, when they do it right it can still be entertaining.The Apparition took characters that should have been written in Tom Arnold's The Stupids and made them the most unbelievable roles ever. Supernatural films before this one, at least, put the characters in situations where they would be exposed to events that could be rationalized. In this movie, there's so many wild things happening in the beginning that you would expect to happen during the 2nd or final act of the film. What's worse is the fact that there is no rationalizing done by any of the characters. They just see something and pop they're mouths open for a couple of minutes, go to bed and tomorrow, it's a fresh brand new day.

Surprisingly, I was never bored by this movie, but thought it lacked every typical standard in every formulaic ghost story.
