Product Description
From Amazon.com
Few things are more sure-fire creepy than huge abandoned buildings, and Session 9 has one of the eeriest buildings you've ever seen. A hazardous-materials-cleanup company has been hired to eliminate asbestos tiles and other toxic material from a gigantic mental hospital that had been shut down in the 1980s. But as one member of the team starts to nose into old files in the office, he uncovers a series of tape recordings of psychiatric sessions--nine of them--related to a notorious sexual abuse case. Soon, toxic materials and dark spirits start to merge. Like The Blair Witch Project (and most horror movies, really), Session 9 is longer on atmosphere and dream logic than story--but the atmosphere is effectively unsettling. A strong cast (including Peter Mullan, David Caruso, and Brendan Sexton III) do an effective job of slowly cracking under stress and evil influences. --Bret Fetzer

2.0 out of 5 stars
a very booooring so called horror film,
By falcon "disdressed12" (canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Session 9 (DVD)
after watching Session 9,i have to say i was disappointed.the movie was
very slow moving,boring in fact.the basic premise is this:a cleanup crew is hired to work in a former mental hospital.the catch is,the hospital has a very dark past.it seems that the ghosts of that past have not all left the hospital.now,you would think this would make for a good ghost story,but it doesn't,at least for me.the whole movie is bleak and depressing,mainly dealing with the personal life of one of the main characters,which does have some relevance to the premise,but this remains mostly hidden for over a third of the film.nothing of much consequence happens in the film,until nearly the very end.i fell asleep with about minutes left in the movie.however judging from what i did see,this movie is not worth watching.the acting is OK and the music is suitably eerie for the film,but that's it.2/5,for the acting.by the way,for a similar and superior film try Boo.

This review is from: Session 9 (DVD)
I don't actually like horror flicks, and this movie is one of the main reasons why. Not because it sucked, but because it did its job too well (on me at least). It's creepy and smart and suspenseful and creepy and gripping and creepy... I saw this thing purely by accident a few years ago on a sunny summer afternoon and I STILL have nightmares about the ending (the movie's not called Session 9 for nothing). Minimal violence/gore, true, but you know the old adage abut how "less is more"? Brrrr, I've got the heebie-jeebies all over again just thinking about it. To conclude, I may have been permanently traumatized by Session 9, and if that doesn't deserve a 5-star rating I don't know what does.

CREEPY!,
By lovemystic (U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Session 9 (DVD)
This is a very disturbing film! Creepy special effects, excellent (yet creepy) cinematography, and a VERY creepy soundtrack that will send chills down your spine. The acting (for the most part) was nothing to brag about, but the performance on behalf of Peter Mullan was excellent.This is not a movie for people who are without a brain; you will have to put your thinking caps on for this one. I strongly recommend watching it more then once because there are things that you will probably miss the first time around. This truly is a psychological thriller, and one that will most likely freak you out! I found the amount of profanity in this movie to be both unnecessary and annoying, but other then that....it's pretty clean. If you like intelligently made horror movies (they are rare today) you will love this film.
