About the Movie
When Becca and Tyler are sent to their grandparents' secluded Pennsylvania farm for a weeklong stay, they quickly discover something is not right with the elderly couple. Faced with strange rules and increasingly frightening behavior, the children soon realize it will take all their wits to make it home alive. Critics rave, the latest heart-pounding thriller from the director of The Sixth Sense and Signs and the producer of Paranormal Activity and The Purge is a “deliciously creepy triumph.”** **Scott Mendelson, Forbes.com

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: The director M. Night Shyamalan has a fine eye and a nice, natural way with actors, and he has a talent for gently rap-rap-rapping on your nerves.
Rotten: For all its intelligence and craft, M. Night Shyamalan's foray into the genre of found-footage horror has the feeling of homework done well.
Fresh: There's undeniable fun in watching a couple of veteran actors get strange with two newcomers. "The Visit" may be worth one.
Fresh: While the production values are simple, the script is sneakily complex. Like the best horror merchants, Shyamalan exploits our secret fears - in this case, of old age, ill health and dementia.
Customer Reviews
Horrendous
Not worth the film its printed on. The kids are horribly acted- the kid is a 9 year old whitebread misogynistic "rapper". The girl is a 50 year old trapped in a 15 year old body. There is some subplot with a well that never goes anywhere. The mother tells some story at the end like we're supposed to care? Then more terrible acting. Literally the worst movie I've seen since "See Spot Run", and that's saying something. I want my 8 dollars back.
Wow
Finally M. Night Shyamalan is back... The movie is scary and funny at the same time... Right on the money! I loved it... The young actors are perfect, they have a great future in the acting world....
Best movie
