Ok to be honest right off the bat, I was expecting a really really awful film from all the atrocious reviews. Instead while watching this film I was pleasantly surprised by how much I really enjoyed it. The Haunting of Sharon Tate is portrayed and advertised since the beginning of shooting it is "Based on the true events from Sharon Tate's nightmares of the Manson murders". Now I know it's a daring project and story to come up with. I really enjoyed how great Hilary Duff was as Sharon Tate, I was nervous that she wouldn't pull off a serious role and especially in "Horror" genre. Hilary Duff was absolutely great! She gave her all and this is her BEST performance of her entire career, showed her growth as an actress. Everyone else in the film was good except for one of the female murderers she was awful. Now the only problem I would say about the overall film is how they stretched it a little too far after we saw or what we think we saw. Now I completely understand why the director did that to trick or be unique to a film and to his audience but a flow is what you look for in a film and it did but it also bounced back to go forward. Other than that "The Haunting of Sharon Tate" wasn't and doesn't deserve these horrible horrible reviews DO NOT PAY ATTENTION to the harsh critics. Go with an open mind, I mean it is from her point of view of her nightmare premonition of her death.

Ignore the negative reviews. Trust me, I've seen worse. This movie doesn't claim to be a documentary or a remake. Spoilers...its how we all wished the real life events would have ended with survivals alive. Think, what would have happened if Sharon Tate and her friends would have survived Charles Manson? The acting was okay and a decent movie to watch. I gave it 4 out 10 stars.

This movie was actually pretty good is not about changing the story it's about the ending they deserved but if you watch the ending of the movie when she walks towards the bodies that lie on the floor she sees herself and her friends it's a very good movie . I almost followed the comment and didn't watch I'm so glad I didn't follow . Next watch a movie entirely before bashing it don't be a follower . Good movie

There's a lot of reviews saying the situation is being exploited but are alright with all other movies of this type. It tells a story, and in a different way. The ending stays the same, those saying it was altered, clearly didn't understand the concept of the movie. I appreciate some people will not understand the basis of the movie but I thought it was ok. The acting was good and it still got across the terror of Helter Skelter and ultimately still showed the murders. I wouldn't watch it again but I wouldn't put anyone off watching it

First off this was painful to watch as nothing happens in this movie. 90% of this film is just like meandering around a house doing nothing. It can't commit to anything because it's a real life story so everything has to be explained away as oh it's just a dream. It probably wasn't the best thing to write a film around as people are obviously going to be offended. And Jesus Christ the end, I had to laugh. It was so stupid. It made the movie even more pointless. What annoys me even more is the filmmakers knew they were flogging a dead horse because they had to put scenes In slow motion to extend the run time and I'm guessing that's why they included random real life news footage So they could pad it out. It was lazy and boring and I wouldn't waste my time with it.

Daniel Farrands' latest film tells the tragedy of Sharon Tate, one of 5 deaths in an infamous real-life mass murder committed by the members of Charles Manson's cult. The release comes close to the 50th anniversary of those events. I entered hoping for a fact-based biopic of Sharon Tate and what happened that night, giving life to the people that were killed and showing us who those people were during their short lives and final days. What we actually get is a rather dull sensationalistic take on the facts, used purely to create a horror film off the back of the tragedy. Had I seen his previous film based on Amityville murderer Ronald DeFeo (which I watched after this and is better executed while feeling narrowly less exploitive), I would've know what to expect - a mostly fictional horror story based on real victims of a real tragedy. While it uses the real life events as an influence on the characters and story, there's clearly a lot of artistic license used and the result is a sub-par horror film that leaves a bitter taste in the mouth due to its exploitation of the real tragedy that took place. There was an opportunity to pay respect to the people that lost their lives, but unfortunately we get a forgettable home-invasion horror film with a particularly odd plot point, which feels absurd for a film which wants to give the impression that it's a fact-based biopic. I can appreciate why Sharon Tate's sister was so against the film. There's nothing particularly interesting about this film and it doesn't do justice to the innocent victims, nor reveal much of anything that we didn't already know. It invents more than it enlightens. Without revealing spoilers, Farrands could have easily made this horror film as a fictional story, with fictional characters, and the result would probably have earned slightly better ratings. But at its core it's a by-the-numbers horror with attempted jumps, moments of suspense, and cat-and-mouse chases, but it definitely does not give the impression (to me at least) that it wants to pay homage to the victims, nor deglorify Manson. The acting is okay, but it's hardly top class, and Duff seems to fade in and out of using an odd accent in her portrayal of Tate. Some of the script feels unnatural, the characters are underdeveloped and some of the acting and dialogue is wooden. The story moves along at a decent pace, but it doesn't really offer enough to hold interest or build suspense, possibly because we know what's coming. Farrands seems to have found himself a new niche, making films about real life tragedies, the next of which will be the murder of OJ Simpson's wife. Unfortunately, the tragedy of Farrands' new-found inspiration for his films is that they're exploiting these horrific real-life events for entertainment and profit. I give it 1/10 due to the combination of it being an unoriginal and dull horror film, as well as an insensitive exploitation of the tragedy. Had it been presented as a fictional story, with fictional characters, it may have earned closer to 3 or 4 out of ten, but it still wouldn't have been anything special.

It is an absolute waste of time, it is predictable until it annoys one. It's bad acting and an even worse story. I can by no means recommend others to waste their time on this piece of amateur movie. That this at all can reach final production and publishing can simply wonder me.

Life is tough out there for 90's stars. They had it all..awesome fashion, cool thin eyebrows, ecstacy and a ton of money. But what do you do when those lucrative tv show parts dry up? You get desperate And decide to exploit one of the most repulsive moments in American history. This is truly a horrific film, with hilary heavy breathing and trying to look gorgeously startled throughout, whilst cradling her prosthetic bump murmuring "I think those people are a threat to me and my baby". Sharon Tate was so much more than a murder victim, yet we always overlook her talent and contribution to fashion and films in favour of morbidly sifting through her (and her friends who always seem to be a footnote) murder. But this film goes much further by mashing up the worst horror cliches (I'm tired of seeing people in the mirror-gasp- turn around and no ones there) with deeply offensive notions that Sharon prophesied her own murder. Sharon tates family have been through so much, and the fact that they have to deal with trite schlock like this really makes me feel even worse for them. It means that theyre not allowed to heal, and it perpetuates the murder * that permeates throughout our society and it's sick. Two stars as the music, whilst cliched, is decent.

Who ever thought that this movie would be a good idea? My sympathies go out to Sharon Tate's family. I'm sure Farrands wouldn't appreciate it if someone in his family was brutally murdered and the event was dredged up and publicly thrown back in his face in the guise of an "entertaining" film....all for the purpose of making more money. This movie idea is highly inappropriate and cruel.
