When the Solomons trade in the craziness of big-city life for the quiet of a North Dakota farm, little do they expect the nightmare that follows. Soon after arriving, teenage Jess and her younger brother see terrifying apparitions and endure attacks from a supernatural source. Jess must warn her disbelieving family before it is too late to save them.
How scary is The Messengers?
Nobody has rated it yet. Ratings on Scare Scale come from people who've watched the film, and score five kinds of scare out of 10:
- Gore
- Blood, injuries and body horror shown on screen. Violence that happens off-screen barely counts.
- Creepy
- Unsettling images, atmosphere and things that feel wrong. Not sudden shocks (Jumpscares) or waiting for something to happen (Suspense).
- Jumpscares
- Sudden shocks designed to make you jump, usually a fast movement or a loud noise. Not slow-building dread (Suspense).
- Suspense
- Tension and dread while you wait for something to happen. Not the scare itself when it arrives (Jumpscares or Gore).
- Psychological
- Horror that gets in your head: paranoia, madness, doubting what's real and ideas that stay with you. Not how a scene looks (Creepy) or feels in the moment (Suspense).
