iPossessed

After watching our hero chop wood for waaay to long to be interesting, interspersed with occasional shots of our heroine driving, their sexy banter reveals them to be brother and sister? It only goes downhill from there.

Despite the lowercase i in the title, no technology was harmed in the making of this film, and other than an occasional phone call and one text message, we get no explanation. A screening audience was told the original script featured a haunted iPhone, and though the movie changed, the title didn't.

The "twist" in the movie seems like they had to force it in with a crowbar, as it makes no sense and adds nothing to the story.

The lead actor is also the writer, and the producer, and with him phoning in a performance more wooden than all the logs he spent time chopping at the film's opening sequence, this comes off like a vanity piece, rather than the suspenseful supernatural thriller we expected.

Sadly, though the other actors are all much more equipped for the job, everyone comes off as very one dimensional and there is no character development. They are all good in their roles, especially the female lead, but she is underutilized and we don't get to know anyone else well enough to care what happens to them... A continuity editor could have helped with some scenes, but the camera work is great, and the score is wonderful.
