    What the heck did I watch?

    Well. There goes 90 minutes of my life, that I will never get back. Bad acting, horrible pacing and a virtually unfollowable plot. Do not waste your time. I would have rather watched 90 minutes of the purple dinosaur Barney than this movie. Ugh.

    All over the place.

    It was a good movie but very confusing at times.

    Definitely watchable and not bad.

    6/10

    Nowhere near as bad as the current rating of 3.6.

    It's weird enough and creepy enough to pull it into the 6 range. The acting was acceptable and the direction was reasonably taut. While it wasn't the second coming of Rosemary's Baby it was better than Exorcist II - The Heretic!

    pretentious aesthetic and heavy makeup

    Violet looks like mormon robot with heavy makeup, this film tries too hard to be something when there isn't something solid to grasp your attention.

    Decent, but slow

    Suspenseful religious horror that borrows plot points from Rosemary's Baby (1968) and the Omen (1976) anti-christ. The pacing is very slow even for those of us used to slow paced film. But it's not bad. Definitely a watch alone type film.
