Cold Creepy Feeling

This movie was absolutely horrible, such amateur crap. Bad acting, no budget, terrible camera work and editing; there's really nothing redeeming at all. Entirely not scary. Nothing would save this film to make it work. Characters are unmemorable and perform mundane crap for the first 42 minutes of the movie.

Yet another amateur production trying to ride the coattails of Paranormal Activity and the lot.

Please don't waste your time by watching this like I did. The people who made this movie shouldn't quit their day jobs. Either that, or someone needs to go back to film school, perhaps part-take in free community center acting workshops.

I really am not sure where an appropriate place to start for this Title is. First of all, just to give a little perspective, I am a die-hard horror film fanatic. Perhaps its a natural inclination to the twisted and terrifying, or the elements of survival, or maybe the atmosphere. I have watched horror from every sub-genre, every decade, shot in every style, and from every country it seems like. In the last one/two year(s), I have watched 200+ horror films EASILY. Almost in every single case I have been able to find a redeeming quality or SOMETHING enjoyable about the film.

Not with "cold creepy feeling". Don't get me wrong, it was terrifying. I was terrified that I might gouge out my eyes after watching an hour and a half of this piece of garbage. I am really not trying to be mean either, like I said, I am the most generous horror movie fan you will ever meet.

The acting was terrible and forced. Especially from the lead actress, who was annoying and came off as fake and incompetent in her role.

The script was cheesy and absolutely juvenile.

The plot was old, tired, old, tired, old, and tired.

The camera quality and filming was the worst I have ever seen in any movie, including any other indie film.

And finally, the ending. I am not going to "give anything away" in the off chance that you make the horrible decision to waste your brain cells on this film that looks and feels like it was made by someone in prepubescence. However I will say is was the sour icing on this mud pie of a movie. It was rushed, didn't follow a logical train of thought, and was just plain awful.

It's not a big budget hollywood movie but thats actually what I like about these movies. They are more realistic. The acting was good. The actress was supposed to be whiny so she was very good. A great story line. I think the actors and filmakers have great careers ahead of them.

A young couple, Lisa Younger and Jared Vandenberg, escape the Los Angeles rat race for the quiet life in Joshua Tree, California but paranormal visions and voices turn the house of their dreams into a house of nightmares.

They enlist the help of a spiritualist, Alex Damiano, to help exorcise the premises but this only awakens and angers the demonic presence that lurks within.

When the town Sheriff, Dennis Woodruff, becomes involved, he discovers that another family mysteriously disappeared 10 years earlier without a trace and he also becomes entangled in the web of evil horror.

What is surprising about this movie is not how total bad it it. Nor how it appears to never rise above the quality of a 15 year old's home movie, but that some of the "actors" have actually gotten other film work! Look for them in Barely Legal and some other quasi porn flicks.

It's horrible. The plot drags on with really badly taped scenic shot of Joshua Tree and highways to no where.

OMG! The only consistent thing about the film is he horrible acting.

For artistic value a couple scenes are taped in sepia tone. Wow. Did you pull that out of film making book or just flip the wrong switch on your $200 camcorder?

Something all you home film makers have to really start thinking about - - you need to either get a better camera than the one from Costco you're using, OR you need to spend a couple bucks in post production to soften the harshness of your HD taping. It's not appealing. Especially in a movie about the supernatural.

The mystic in this movie truly cannot act her way out of a paper bag. The entire production feels like it was made on the fly. -- "Hey! I just got a new $200 video camera -- let's have another beer and make a movie!

Biggest prop cost in the film? Looks like the spent about $15 on candles! Don't expect much more!

Before I get ripped for giving this a 9, let me say it is not for the quality or the intended scare factor. Rather, this is just the type of movie a group of friends would have fun shredding to pieces from the non existent story line, the horrible camera work and the acting. This movie, if you want to call it that, is a cinematic gift to group that enjoys finding the faults that make it so bad. So grab some beer and pizza, sit back and start ripping!
