I had a love hate relationship with the original sinister. Liked the concept but I didn't like how often you see the threat and how many god damn jump scares there are. This edit changes the film to be less jumpy (There are still some jump scares) and more suspenseful. I enjoyed how underplayed the ghoul was. I'm gonna leave my review at this, just watch it.

the original sinister was a good movie but Agent Sam Stanley has taken an already great movie and improved on it, by cutting away the fake jump scares has really bumped up the creepy factor of this movieand by re-ordering a few scenes and removing the villain made him more treacherous and more of a puppetmaster lurking in the shadows. if you were scared by the original rewatch this edited version and you could be scared all over again.

I really liked the original (especially for the soundtrack), but agree that the numerous clichées and red herrings somewhat watered it down.
Luckily, Agent Sam Stanley has done a great job at removing most of those. A perfect example of "less is more"...

The editing also gives it a new narrative, which is very enjoyable.
So whether you liked or disliked the original, definintely give this version a try!

I saw the original Sinister couple of times and overall it's a pretty scary movie. But this edit made it so much better. When the original tried to imply that there is an actual supernatural dude playing around, in this version you left to interpret things the way you want. The threat became very ambiguous, and that's the kind of subtlety i wish more horrors had. Great work!

Loved the original one, but you managed to make it better. Getting rid of all the useless jumpscars to concentrate more on the story was a very smart move, the movie now is more creepy than ever.
