Analysis of Article

[edit]

The original article of Apartment 143 needed a lot of work. The article did not include the meaning of the word Emergo, the production companies, a detailed summary, rating of the movie, and a little more about the director/writer regarding this film. Even though the original article was very basic and "too the point," I decided to add these things that was not include in the original so that reviewers and people who want to know more about Apartment 143, will have a clear and detailed understanding of the movie.

Alan's wife, Cynthia (Laura Martuscelli)[18] suffered from an illness that was explained during Alan's interview. It was stated that after her death "things became odd"[19]. Alan had moved to escape the paranormal activity that was taken place in his home.[15] He then moved to apartment 143, however after about a week or so the paranormal activities started up once a gain. Benny believes that the strange things are coming from his mother. He believes that "she is not dead or alive"[19]. Alan's late wife had also been in a terrible car accident. Katelyn blames her father for not being there during the time of her mother's death. This lead to a negative relationship between the two.

Later at night during the first day of the investigation, Alan receives a phone call that Benny answers, however no one is on the other line. the door bell rings, but when Alan answers the door there isn't any one there, at the same time, things in the kitchen start to rattle, but there is nothing there. The second time the phone rings Alan answers and there is a very loud screaming noise that shocks everyone.[19] Paul and Ellen discover that in a photo taken of Caitlin, behind her is a human figure of a women wearing a gown. The photo that they took of Caitlin with the women figure behind her has been deleted by the apparition.
