Played out angles

Why does every horror film have to have the in-the-know kid angle? The trailer for the new Jennifer Connelly movie 'Dark Water' has a kid who knows the shot. The kid's imaginary friend isn't so imaginary. We've seen this more times than can be counted, the DeNiro movie from last year had it. The Shinning, Poltergeist, Exorcist...and on down the line.

Even the sixth sense which was terrific, had the same angle.


Think of something else please.
