There's been an ongoing debate since the dawn of the horror fandom about what the actual scariest movie might be, weighing powerful horror movies by a number of factors including critics reviews, box office draw, and personal taste. But science has spoken, and the results are in — Scott Derrickson's possession slasher drama Sinister has been determined to be the scariest movie of all time. The study measured the heart rates of 50 individuals as they watched a series of 50 horror movies, and participants' hearts were beating literally twice as high as normal during their viewing of the genuinely creepy Sinister , a film that's pushed horror boundaries by making children vicious mass murderers. While some might disagree with the entire premise of the study — which focused on horror films with huge jump scares that caused heartbeat spikes — Sinister is still indeed a terrifying story, made scarier by its effective use of music, lighting, and Ethan Hawke's moving, three-dimensional portrayal of Ellison Oswalt, a has-been crime writer who has no idea the danger he's put his family in, all for the sake of a new book. And if you want to understand what happens in the film's final grisly moments, then here's the ending of Sinister explained. Sinister opens in a chilling tableau.

And the story remains unrelenting from there on. Ten years before these murders, Ellison Oswalt had been a wildly successful true crime writer, whose book Kentucky Blood a clear reference to Truman Capote's seminal true crime novel, In Cold Blood had hit a cultural zeitgeist.

I was quite surprised as to how much exposition was given to the main character and it only makes the film even more compelling than it is. Rob Riley E. Tavis Smiley Anchor.

Ethan Hawke is Ellison Oswalt, a true crime author and devoted family man with a what-have-you-done-for-us-lately fan base and editor anxiously awaiting his next blockbuster.
