This here was quite the enjoyable if slightly flawed effort. Though it does feature prominently as a flaw, the slow-build nature of the storyline here is one of the more impressive parts here with the way that there’s this unraveling mystery that gets built up throughout the film. The whole mysterious-strangers-in-town vibe that carries throughout the first half is really well-done, the inclusion of their psychic friends is a big positive as they’re able to uncover so many other aspects of their story with the ability to spell out what’s happening and the way the different cut-aways to the townspeople which manages to all combine together into a great storyline that’s given plenty of time to work itself out by taking as long as it does. That ends up revealing quite an impressive and old-school style effort with the need for sacrificial rituals and predetermined curses coming into play as well as the concept of people aligning themselves with the dark force already present at the location which is all so well handled how it ties into the different archetypes featured in past efforts. Likewise, this one also offers up plenty of enjoyable elements from the action of how this one goes about giving this storyline some frenetic action to help sell these factors, generating plenty of fun here with some great action in the beginning with the attack while down in the basement which is petty chilling and creepy as the ghost appears and begins chasing them around the room and out into their car which is quite a fun scene. Still, the majority of the fun here comes from the final half which is just a purely enjoyable and over-the-top exercise in enjoyment with the film going all-out for delivering brutal kills that are incredibly bloody, plenty of action-packed chases with them going around the house escaping from the mob after them and the different resolutions it brings up, all aided nicely by the absolutely chilling and creepy-looking ghosts here that give this one so much to like. Still, there’s a few minor flaws here which mostly stems from the film’s one biggest factor in the dull, lagging pace. The fact that we get as slow a burn as it is here definitely takes a toll on this one in the beginning where once we get past their grief and trauma of the accident not a whole lot actually happens here. It’s not just that there’s something happening all the time, but it’s rarely giving any kind of encounter here until nearly halfway through which is quite a long time of nothing occurring. The other issue here is the absolutely inane concept of once again featuring a film where characters are clearly aligned with a truly malignant force for no reason, as the relationship isn’t given anything worthwhile to expand upon here and the whole thing is confusing and muddied. Otherwise, thought, there’s not a whole lot wrong here. |

Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup? Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs. My review blog: http://donshorrormovieblog.blogspot.com/ | |

This is one of the best films I saw when watching 2015 horror movies. I want to see this movie's director take on Jonathan's They Followed Us Home script. Though that movie needs to be long, and this one was incredibly short. Like, really short. This is a great flick, though. Great gore. Good acting. Cool looking ghost designs. Etc. Felt very retro, man. |
