2/10
You can save this one with a remake.

This movie started perfect. But then the writers got stupid and forgot it's a fictional movie not reality. Started perfect until the point where the demon arrives. Upon the wife seeing the demon and running to get a knife, hearing his wife shriek the husband rushes towards her calling out in the house for his wife but unbelievably she doesn't hear or answer back to his calls even though she sees a demon sitting at the table. Then shortly after their daughter shrieks in terror but the parents only walk towards the bedroom where there young daughter is about to fall out a window. The horror movie cliche of a door slamming shut when they arrive frustrates the viewer even more. The ghost buster or demon buster later in the show is called in but at one point stands in a circle ⭕ in the homeowners kitchen while bedlam is going on all over the house. The movie writers forgot all about her being in the script. They aso completely forget that the movie character reveals that a similar horror case took place in the town. A priest was called in to save the victim. So in the end why wasn't a priest or exorcist called to help. Instead the Father is taken to a looney bin. Ruining the movie ending completely also. That said (and it was more clownery in this movie to add) this movie could have been very good if the storyline remembered it's a fiction horror movie so make it believable in the world of fictional horror. Finally, I will finish with the demon guy. It's never impressive to have a guy in a rubber suit playing a supposedly scary demon villain in a horror movie.
