Customer Reviews of Session 9
Excellently Creepy I rented Session 9 the other day with low expectations. I figured it would be "The House on Haunted Hill" or "The Haunting" which are movies I liked, but were not really scary. "Session 9" on the other hand IS quite scary. I'm not going to bother rehashing the story, but I will say that if you're more into supernatural suspense-thrillers (like "The Sixth Sense", "The Others", Stephen King's "Storm of the Century") than slasher flicks, then you'll LOVE this movie. The suspenseful and hinting scenes build up to a climax that makes sense, but is also very surpising and unexpected. It's not a gore-fest definitely, and the actual violence is fairly short. The insane asylum (which is a real place actually) and the tapes one of the characters discover of a former inmates psychological evaluation supply the main creepiness of the film. Also, the extra scenes are interesting, and the segments about the real insane asylum this movie is based on are quite interesting. All-in-all an excellent pick for a scary-movie lover.
Disturbing in an understated way
Very few movies disturb me to the point of actually making me too uncomfortable to turn off the lights in my house. This is one of those movies.
I have always felt the truly scariest of movies, are the ones that leave a lot up to the viewers imagination. It's most often what you DON'T see that ends up being the most frightening .
This movie tells the story of a group of 4 men, hired to remove hazordous material from an abandoned insane asylum. Each of these men have their own reasons for being there, and the first half of "Session 9" goes about explaining what they are, through various subtle and not so subtle clues. There's the failed lawyer who becomes obsessed with listening to old tapes of therapy sessions with a woman named Mary and her 3 alter-personalities. Then there is the lottery-ticket obsessed Hank who thinks he's found his "escape plan" buried deep inside the tunnels of the asylum. David Caruso's character is hard-working, but you can't help but think he's hiding his own secrets. Gordon...the leader of the group is the hardest character to figure out. You are shown flashbacks that make you suspect that something horrible has happened in his life recently, but you're not sure exactly what until very near the end.
The plot is a bit slow-moving at first, but it succeeds in drawing you in, and making you want to know what exactly is driving these characters. and there is the asylum. The aspect of the film that disburbed me more then anything else...without giving too much away...is what ends up happening to the Hank character. The scenes of him running down the shadow-filled tunnels, and subsequent re-emergence of his character later in the film left me feeling incredibly uneasy. that is the one thing that will end up staying with me more then anything else.
The performances and the intriguing style of storytelling...but above all, the entire eerie atmosphere is what makes this one of the best horror movies to come around in quite some time.
