Yesterday I watched this movie
El Orfanato / The OrphanageActually, I wanted to give 7.5/10 for this movie,
but suddenly, seeing the last 15 minutes scene... I gave up and rose the score to 8.3/10
It made me cry. Quite alot.
So now, let me begin my synopsis (I know I cannot write that good... maybe you all prefer to read it from here
[link])
Laura and her husband Carlos stay at an orphanage, in which Laura stayed during her childhood. They bring Simon, their adopted son. Soon, Simon meets his 'invincible' friends, people said it's imaginary friends, wateva...
After having his imaginary friends, Simon refuses to meet other children. In a disabled-children party that Laura held, Simon asks Laura to meet one of his friend's house, Tomas. Laura gets angry and asks Simon to join the party, still Simon refuses. She slaps Simon and leaves him alone in his room.
When Laura returns, Simon disappears. She tries to find him anywhere but cannot. Instead, she meets this Tomas guy who locks her in the bathroom.
Months passed. Finally Laura and Carlos find themselves the story of the house, polices, and psychoanalyst (or what eh? i forgot...). The psychoanalyst said she sees five children there, but cannot find Simon. On the other hand, Carlos thinks Laura has gone insane, and he urges to leave the house. Laura stays behind for another two days to say goodbye.
After Carlos has gone, Laura recreates the orphanage as it was during her childhood. And there's also a bedroom with 6 beds (i think). When she plays this "Un, dos, tres, toca la pared", Simon's imaginary friends appear and Laura finds Simon in the basement.
She finds Simon dead. She stucks the basement's door closed with stuffs when she looked for him months before.
She returns to the bedroom and brings Simon with her. Here, Simon's imaginary friends, which are Laura's childhood mates in this orphanage, appears. Simon asks her to stay and tell bedtime stories... <<< here =")
At the last scene, Carlos returns to the house and gives flowers to Laura's grave. At that moment I've just realized that Laura died the days before
(( In the bedroom, he finds the goodluck necklace he gave Laura months ago. The door opens (and I wonder what is that) and he smiled.
The end.
Rating: 8.3/10 for horror movie
European horror is nice, unlike Hollywood's one. Haha. Just like last time I watched "El Habitacion de Nino"
