Tras recibir la noticia de que su hijo adolescente, Matt (Kyle Gallner), tiene cáncer, Sarah (Virginia Madsen) y Peter Campbell (Martin Donovan) deciden trasladar a toda la familia cerca de la clínica dónde Matt está siendo tratado. El lugar elegido es una imponente casa de estilo victoriano que oculta un oscuro pasado como antigua funeraria en la que sucedieron terribles acontecimientos. La familia empieza a presenciar violentos y extraños fenómenos que, al principio, asocian con el estrés provocado por la enfermedad. Pronto se darán cuenta de que se enfrentan a oscuras y terroríficas fuerzas de origen sobrenatural. Basada en escalofriantes hechos reales. (DeAPlaneta)

Not nearly as bad as I expected and quite a pleasant surprise when compared with the recent and ostentatiously stupid Unborn. The story, of course, is one massive cliché, but I still liked it. The arc with the sick boy helps quite a lot, preventing the film from being as generic as other ghost stories. On the other hand, the film takes itself very seriously, which hurts it in some passages – a bit of a B-movie approach wouldn’t have hurt (but given that the hero is dying of cancer, the creators probably didn’t have balls for that). Average, watchable.

"The Horror in Connecticut" is definitely not a completely bad horror movie, which surprised me quite a bit because I was expecting something worse. But this is a film that has a frantic pace, especially in the way horror images are portrayed here. And there are indeed plenty of them. From those that are relatively realistic, to some ectoplasms that swirl through the air. The writing on the body is truly disgusting.
