This year, we’re celebrating with a different movie pick each day that made us audibly gasp, “WHAT THE FUCK?!”

It’s the 21st already?! I present to you M. Night Shyamalan’s The Visit. Yes, you read that correctly. Perhaps this film does not come to mind so quickly when thinking of horror that made you want to cover your eyes or scream, “Oh dear god, no!”
