    Watchable But Average Teen Horror Fluff

    The only thing that made this watchable was Suki Waterhouse. It's an average teen mystery of the horror genre. I wasn't bored, it was a watchable time passer for a Sunday night. Held my attention. I did find some of it predictable, I predicted the reveal, maybe others won't. Was it scary? No. Was it intriguing? Yes.

    If you like this type of thing and have nothing else to watch, stick it on as an okay time passer.

    worth a watch.

    Worth a watch this one, supernatural slasher, tidy little twist, sadly genuinely scary horrors are few and far between, sit back and enjoy it for what its worth..

    Not that great to be honest.

    After a rather promising beginning, if you don't count the cliché "boarding school has his bunch of bullies and one stands up against it", the plot is getting more boring towards the end. I can't say I'm really thrilled about Sceance after watching it. It's all been done before and much better to be honest. The acting was decent, nothing more, but the story felt short. The horror scenes are very mild, not worth mentioning. It's all low budget, just like the quality.

    aggressively middling

    A prank at the all-girls boarding school Fairfield Academy leads to the death of a student named Kerrie. The prank seems to have brought out a real supernatural spirit. The death is assumed to be a suicide. New student Camille Meadows (Suki Waterhouse) arrives to take over Kerrie's room. She gets into a fight with the clic of girls involved with the prank and they all get detention. While in detention, they decide to perform a seance to contact Kerrie.

    It's all very average and middling starting with lead actress Suki Waterhouse. The story, the location, and the filmmaking are all middling. It's not actually scary although it's a little spooky. The twist is not shocking as much as it's a relief that it makes sense. The mystery is the same. I'm just glad that it's not completely stupid but the reveal is a long information dump.

    • Trivia
      No school would this allow production to film on their campus. The campus featured in the movie was actually cobbled together from 8 different shooting locations, including an abandoned bank building, a private residential home, and constructed sets.
    • Quotes

      Bethany: This has been tremendously satisfying, but it's time to wrap it up.

    • Crazy credits
      After the closing credits there are about three minutes of deleted scenes with no soundtrack.
