      Satan: So in Sinister this is unrealistic, children are easy to possess and the fact he has to wait till they move to do it is completely wrong. Now even if he was using it as a cover so that this house doesn’t gain a reputation as a haunted house it’s not effective because of the multiple families moving out so quickly. You want to make a house appear inviting and leave no trace of the family behind so it’s a if they never existed at all.

    They should have invited a medical expert as well! He could have judge the COMPLETELY UNREALISTIC behavior of humans, their possibilities and bodies under those conditions! For example you can NOT run in the event of a major earthquake, because the ground is constantly moving beneath you! You can NOT breath OR even survive in a closed surrounding when it is so hot that even glass is breaking - you would literally been boiled ALIVE! Thereon is a human body not that heavy when you are dealing with natural catastrophic circumstances! When you have a frying hot airwave by a volcanic eruption, compressed air by a tsunami or the whirling storm of a freaking tornado the ravishing winds would just blow away a human like a flake of dust!!!

      Well it does happen and pretty often actually. Though not to the extent of the movie. I've lost count of how many times I've seen the evidence for it happening. There have been cases where sharks were picked up by waterspouts and deposited inland of the event. Frogs, fish and any number of sea life have rained down on towns in recent times along coast lines. That's why I believe they agreed with the movie.

    A cyclone happened in Queensland, Australia, it was ripping sharks out of the water and throwing them into Brisbane (Queensland capital)

    • @katherinemorelle7115
      @katherinemorelle7115 4 роки тому

      Citation please.
      Because we’ve always had bullsharks in the Brisbane river, but not in the streets unless there’s a major flood. The last major flood was in 2011, and was absolutely not caused by a cyclone (though Cyclone Yasi did happen a very short while after Brisbane flooded).
      Also, it’s really rare for cyclones to travel as far south as Brisbane. It happens occasionally, but not often. The closest to that happening in my lifetime was Marcia (2014 or 2015, I think), but it wasn’t a cyclone by the time it reached the level of Brisbane- just a tropical low. Plenty of rain, though. There was another one similar a year or so previously, but again, it was only a low by the time it got that far south- Australia Day weekend the year my daughter started prep (so, 2013, maybe?). Just going off memory.
      But no sharks dropped on our heads by a cyclone or otherwise. Not during my lifetime (32 years) and I’m even if it had happened previously, it would probably be a rather well known story (much like I know about the 74 floods, and Tracey in 75)

      El-ahrairah because theres not that many sharks that‘d just get sucked up like that. Most of them are further below water and a lot of shark species dont typically swim near coasts. Plus global shark populations have declined almost 90% during the last few decades, so it‘d be pretty unreasonable that so many sharks would be thrown on land. And even then, I doubt they‘d still be able to try to eat humans when they‘ve been taken out of the water and completely disoriented and without oxygen. Plus humans arent natural prey items for sharks, so they probably wouldnt even try, they‘d just land on the ground and suffocate
