Plot Summary: Based on a chilling true story, Lionsgate's "The Haunting in Connecticut" charts one family's terrifying, real-life encounter with the dark forces of the supernatural. When the Campbell family moves to upstate Connecticut, they soon learn that their charming Victorian home has a disturbing history: not only was the house a transformed funeral parlor where inconceivable acts occurred, but the owner's clairvoyant son Jonah served as a demonic messenger, providing a gateway for spiritual entities to crossover.

Now unspeakable terror awaits, when Jonah, the boy who communicated with the dead, returns to unleash a new kind of horror on the innocent and unsuspecting family.

It looks like something I'd like but...it also looks like a carbon copy of The Amityville Horror.

I too saw the documentary and it was a hell of a story and it looks like it will be a hell of a film as well.

I saw this documentary, too. I was scary when I watched it on TV. In reality, the family moved to Connecticut because the eldest son had cancer and it was closer to his doctor.

I found the discovery documentary especially chilling however in watching the trailer i cant see anyone who doesn't know about the discovery doc, thinking to themselves that this looks like some more cheap horror movie churned out these days, it will be better than most movies in this genre made these days but hopefully they can make into something as interesting and scary as the original discovery feature, which was chilling to say the least because it really happened.

It looks really good! But I thought An American Haunting with Donald Sutherland looked really good as well and; to put it mildly it sucked balls.
