I can't stand unrealistic scripts ! If you really think that a guy who hides to his new girlfriend the very way his wife died can dare to leave her with his troubled kid and criticize her professional (reasonable) judgement about what had happened to her, you are sorely delusional as a scriptwriter. It's not horror, it's just annoying to watch.

I will watch Lin Shaye in ANYTHING! She is amazing and always nails the character. That said, even she cannot save this movie.

I think this is the second review I've ever written because I feel like the horror genre is so hard to review! There are so many different types of films and, honestly, horror movie aficionados are kinda snobby, lol, we all feel like critics!

This one started out strong, I was excited, I thought ok, wow, this one is gonna be good... up until just past the halfway point and then I don't know what happened but they lost me and I couldn't be more disappointed.

It's very frustrating because half the story was there and the acting was great (a big deal to me) and, Lin Shaye! Hello! But it fizzled out and I was so irritated I had to come here and write this review.

Maybe I'm missing something but I just didn't get it after about two thirds of the way thru. For reference, to give you an idea of the types of movies I like - because it's so hard to try and find a good horror movie that is in my wheelhouse - I very much enjoyed these disturbing horror films, The Platform, Pet, Ghostland and Midsommar, fun horror movies like Tucker and Dale VS Evil and especially LOVED Final Girls with Taissa Farmiga, I adore AHS, loved Tusk, Hunt, Waxwork, any old school 80's slasher film and, of course, ALL of the Insidious movies and The Conjuring franchise, as well. I could probably go on all night but that gives you a small idea of what I like in order to determine if you might want to trust my judgement and give this movie a pass.

Hope this might help others trying to find something good to watch!

Well... I am sure I can add nothing new to comments which preceded mine, so I guess I will just reiterate. Rather lifeless attempt at a cliche possession genre horror. It evidently had some budget... enough to give it the gloss of a real movie, with pretty competent acting and cinematography, but it really breaks no new ground at all in plot, scripting, or anything really. In fact, it has some points where it gets pretty absurd... disappointingly mostly (but not exclusively) right near the end so that after you have endured all the (admittedly weak) buildup you get left with a poorly put together climax and a feeling of having lost some valuable time from your life. I suppose, the best i could say about it is, maybe, if you REALLY have nothing better to do with your time, you could watch it... maybe while washing the dishes.

Silent Hill (2006) is great! Why is Radha Mitchell on this movie?! Everything was bad... acting, editing, concept... The movie starts with a dictionary definition... WHY?! I watched till the end in hope something would turn up... But boy, there's a hole lot of bad movies better than this one.

It's hard to find a good horror these days, but this one by far is one of the most boring one I've watched. I nearly even fell asleep during it. Don't waste your time on this
