If you put this film on with high expectations you will not enjoy it. If you're a horror fan and don't mind a bit of poor acting and some weak writing but enjoy a solid idea and decent cgi gore, enjoy. The effects are good the plot works for a horror film and the pace is pretty steady. If this film was released in the 90s it would've been a big deal. As it stands, I'd recommend it to horror fans only. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
I watched this film because of it's 7.9 rating.
5 minutes in I started thinking...this doesn't come across like a 7.9, ten more minutes passed - it's not a 7.9.
Clearly someone has been playing with the votes, this film is awful. The acting is terrible along with the cast, the story is sub par and the horror aspect it predictable and very much not even remotely jumpy.
Avoid this film at all cost.

The current rating is far too generous.
This is your average b horror movie -- amateur acting/casting and cheap jump scares.
Not worth the time in my opinion.
Do yourself a favor and find a different movie to watch.

What I loved about the film is that they don't waste any time by jumping right into the action. It is really truly freaky in the beginning as we learn there is something sinister going on. Sadly, though, after a promising start, the film dwindles to loads and loads of credibility issues and 'been there done that' territory. They are trying just too hard to give every character a back story, as the demon feeds on their darkest secrets and fears. The reveal through the kidnapped girl's video diary is not believable at all and rather silly, actually. The way the gang immediately finds what is relevant to the story is just not credible. The film completely looses momentum towards the end as suspense makes way for reveal upon reveal. Some good visuals, though, and I did enjoy the satisfying ending.
It wasn't completely awful. The worst scene of all was the flashback with the priest and family around the table. Some of the worst acting and dialogue I've ever heard. It had some good moments so I don't feel like I wasted the whole time.

- TriviaThe scenes of the interior of the jewellery dealer's house were filmed at the Lindfield Victorian House Museum in Auckland Park, Johannesburg.
- GoofsIn the video recorded flashback, the priests speak of the Codex Vaticanus and mention that the House on Willow Street is a site of evil due to it being the furthest point away from the Vatican where the Codex is kept (illustrating the fact with an apple). This however is geographically incorrect - the geographic antipode from the Vatican is located deep in the South Pacific Ocean, East of both New Zealand and the International Date Line and far away from any landmass that the movie might be set in.
- Crazy creditsThe end credits roll the opposite way.
