Counted the jumpscares in Thir13en Ghosts. Lost count. Lost interest. Refunded the popcorn emotionally.
“Even the credits needed a rewrite.”

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Thir13en Ghosts?
Director clearly thought Thir13en Ghosts was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Hot Take: Thir13en Ghosts's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Look, I wanted to love Thir13en Ghosts. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Unpopular opinion: Thir13en Ghosts is the most overrated film of the decade
Just got out of Thir13en Ghosts and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Thir13en Ghosts actually is?
Everyone praising the Thir13en Ghosts performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
