Orphan (2009)

I flicked right passed this as I'm not a big horror watcher and thought it was an "Omen" type film. As usual, nothing else was on so I gave it a go. Wow, quite different to the Omen. lol
It was actually pretty good considering what I was expecting. It actually had a storyline which is a bonus for today's films but ...

Spoiler:

the little girl being a 33 year old patient from a mental institution was a little difficult to take but the reveal was cool. Very creepy when she's coming onto the father (who annoyed the hell out of me throughout), and smothers the brother in his bed.
The acting was good and I'm glad the little deaf girl got revenge at the end.
Glad it didn't go down the supernatural route neither.


All in all a good film. Wish they'd put more rarely seen films on instead of the constant barrage of Bridget Jones, Bodyguard etc.
