Apartment 1303 3D (2012)
Having grown up under the controlling grip of her fame-hungry mother (Rebecca De Mornay), Janet Slate (Julianne Michelle) jumps at the opportunity to move into what looks to be a great high-rise apartment in downtown Detroit.  Yet some deals are too good to be true as one night her boyfriend Mark (Corey Sevier) finds her in the middle of the street - having fallen from the balcony thirteen stories above.  

When her sister Lara (Mischa Barton) tries to investigate the mystery of what happened, she moves into the same apartment and encounters the odd neighbors in the building, including an eerie nine-year old girl who seems to somehow know the real reason for JanetÂ’s fall.  Lara soon realizes that her sisterÂ’s death might spell the same fate for her unless she can overcome the strange events that are terrorizing the inhabitants in Apartment 1303.  

Using innovative 3D shooting techniques, director Michael Taverna creates a tense supernatural thriller that is adapted from a novel by Kei Ôishi.

    Not worth your time

    This might be the worst acted movie I've ever seen! But even that was great compared to the simple script and terrible directing. I felt like I was watching a movie that my kid made on a camcorder. It was almost so bad that I started laughing. Take my advice and watch something else. Anyone who liked this movie must either be brain dead or related to someone who was involved with production. From beginning to end I cringed not in fear, but in the amateurism that this movie displays. It was also very predictable with little to no mystery. My wife likes some of the dumbest movies ever made and even she kept repeating how bad it was. At one point I got up to get a drink and when I came back I hadn't missed anything. It forces itself through the motions and repeats nuances from other horror flicks. This movie could not have cost more than a couple grand to make.

    oh my god this was horrible - i had to turn it off

    I can't imagine how desperate the Rebecca DeMornay and Mischa whatever her last name is must have been to sign on to do this movie - everything is wrong with it. Script, direction, sound, photography, plot -- literally every aspect of the movie stinks.

    This movie is so terrible that it made me appreciate all the skill and talent that I had always taken for granted as a viewer, the things that add up to making a decent movie: sound, camera angles, lighting, music -- not to mention the obvious: acting ability and plot. This movie had none of it.

    I love a good ghost story so we ordered it on demand without considering the possibility that it could be so unbearably bad we would actually decide to stop watching. I don't hesitate to cut my losses and stop watching a bad movie partway into it, but my partner rarely does -- her attitude is, how bad can it be? Yet, even she agreed that we couldn't watch it for a moment longer.

    Who cares if the actors are gorgeous, as another reviewer felt compelled to point out twice. What on earth does that have to do with anything? I know a lot of gorgeous people - that doesn't mean I'd want to endure two hours of watching them in a terrible movie.

    I have never posted a movie review before but felt compelled to do so, just to save someone else from making the same mistake. What a waste of time and money. THE WORST.

    Apartments don't kill people. Boredom kills people...

    Another one of those "let's make a foreign movie into a Hollywood version", and yet again, as with so many other such attempts, it failed and was put to shame by the original.

    Given the fact that the original Japanese "Apartment 1303" wasn't particularly much to write home about, then you would think that director Michael Taverna would have it nice and easy here to make it into a better remake. You would think so! But wow, this American version of "Apartment 1303" turned out to be even worse and more boring than the original Japanese version.

    The storyline is essentially the same as in the Japanese version, a woman movies into an apartment that is haunted by something sinister because of a tragic event that took place in the self same apartment.

    This American version of "Apartment 1303" was nowhere even remotely near being scary or spooky in the least bit. And it was a rather pointless and dull experience to sit through. I had initially hoped that Rebecca DeMornay would be able to lift up the movie even just a bit, but that proved not to be the case, as she wasn't given much to work with in this movie.

    Some times it is better to not meddle with original versions of movies, and just leave them to what they initially were and are. I strongly suggest that you watch the Japanese version of "Apartment 1303" if you absolutely have to watch this story. However, be warned, you are not in for much of an improvement.

    Truly awful

    Truly awful movie, never made it past 15mins, even that was kind. Acting? What acting? . You have been warned!. I watch and love a lot of horrors, trust me, this shambles was ruined by too much talking to ones self, too much inane shouting "hello, who's there". Shes just moved into an empty apartment! . I can sum it up really by saying, the acting made me cringe, it really is that bad!. Rebecca da mornay, oaft , whats happened to you. Or were you really always that bad? Poor acting, directing and butchering of what probably coulda been a good movie. Another lazy missed opportunity by American cinema, as i have said, i tried and tried to push through and watch it, but could not fulfil that one simple task, the laziness reeks ouuta the entire production, the dialogue, just makes you feel uncomfortable and not in a suspenseful or deliberate part of the movie, i mean, it just doesn't make sense.

    No. Just no.

    It is always nice to discover a well directed horror film. This isn't one of those though. You know those movies where you see the first scene and you know right then and there that it will suck all throughout? This is one of them. It is the kind of movie Hallmark channel would make if Halmark made horror movies. It has the feeling and directing of a Hallmark channel movie, but with a ghost sitting on the toilet. Seriously, it is that bad.

    Embarrassingly poor script, acting and directing - along with hardly any 'scary' bits - made watching this movie a chore. I started playing Angry Birds half way through. And I hate Angry Birds.

      In her new apartment. Lara goes to open a bottle of wine with a corkscrew. She becomes frightened by the wind and knocks the wine glasses and the bottle over with the corkscrew attached to the bottle, in the next scene she goes next door and introduces herself to Emily. She asks Emily if she can borrow a corkscrew but does get one from Emily. She goes back to her apartment and has an uncomfortable interaction with the creepy superintendent. When she goes back into the kitchen the glasses are back and the wine bottle is upright, without the corkscrew attached, it is open and has no cork in, you can see her poke her index finger into the open bottle top. The cork is also visible when she grabs the neck of the bottle and uses the corkscrew to 'open' the bottle. The wrapping on the neck of the bottle changes. She only got one glass out of the closet, yet there are two on the counter. She picks up an object after knocking the glasses and wine bottle over, but that object is not seen again in later shots.

      [last lines]

      Lara Slate: [stark, dully numb voice] I know you don't believe me, but I didn't kill anybody. Jennifer Logan and her mother still live here, and they kill people. Everyone on this floor is dead.

      Detective: Apartments don't kill people, Lara. People kill people. It's time to go here. Come on, let's get out of here.

      [helps her up]

      Detective: One, two, three.

      [as he leads her away:]

      Detective: You have the right to remain silent, everything you say may or will be used against you in a court of law...
