Sinister is one of the few films had been looking forward to here in 2012, aside from V/H/S, the amazing Cabin in the Woods, and sci-fi/horror geekfeast, Prometheus. With the “found footage” element now in full swing these past few years, Sinister takes the tactic and gives us a different take on it, much like V/H/S did with slightly less success. Coming in without the cliches of most other films of its type, this effort gives us great chills, good thrills, lots of tension, and a storyline that had me engaged from the get-go. Sinister may not be the best horror film of the year, but it is one of them, and definitely worth a watch.
