Featured reviews
The cinematography and lighting with the thriller parts are so good. Very very underrated work of art and the performance of actors were awesome. Quite a good movie.
I thought it was a very good story. I'm thinking a lot of the negative reviews are on the 'acting' the only bad acting/script is the Americanisation of the dubbing. The rest of the world don't speak with an American dialect. So makes this Russian film seem poorly scripted. But it's not. Just poorly dubbed.
It's certainly not the predictable Hollywood type supernatural/horror. Yet again possibly why some are negative towards it. Because it's just not Hollywood enough!

Stories about summoning a demon never end well. Including this movie. Spoiler alert : the ending doesn't favor the protagonist. One thing I don't like about the protagonist is that she's a stereotypical weak minded woman who's willing to do anything or sacrifice anything to conform to other people's will. In this case, her selfish desire to own her crappy boyfriend. So if you don't like this kind of person, don't watch this movie. I did because the horror side was just good to watch. The jump scares were reasonable, not cheap ones. Solid 7 from me. I don't know why other people rated it so poorly. Maybe because it's from Russia. I mean, you can hate the country, but why condemn a perfectly good movie just for that? I'm not biased towards any political agenda. When I see something good, I give good rating. This movie does not deserve rating under 5 stars. The acting was decent, the plot was solid (even though it's predictable), and although there wasn't any plot twists, the story is still interesting enough to follow through.
Well done movie. Definitely can get a viewer creeped out. Just a note ... permanent wants may become permanent regrets.
