Featured reviews
Conceptually it was brilliant. However the acting and cringe dialogue let it down quite abit.
There were a few good jump scares but it's not a scary movie in my opinion, it was more of a suspense/mystery movie with some frights.
Overall, I did enjoy the movie and I'd recommend if you have nothing else to watch.

Echoes of Fear follows the trope of many haunted house stories. Characters move in to the house, and the house is haunted. The protagonist has to find out the dark past of the house to solve the problem. The pacing is definitely a problem because things seem to move too slow, however, the mystery aspect of the story helps maintain interest. The acting is mediocre, but the jump scares are effective. There are two scenes when I jumped off my seat. Fortunately, the effective scares balances with the bad acting, making movie neither too horrible, or too enjoyable. I would say this is one of the average horror movies that slightly veer to the bad.
Plot develops interesting enough through to keep watching.
Nothing new to the genre, same topic explored in many different movies.
Terrible casting for female lead, annoying voice and dumb face doesn't help.
A young woman called Alysa (played by Trista Robinson, who has the voice of a young child, this was pretty annoying!) inherits her late grandfather's large house. She moves in with a view to selling it but almost immediately spooky things start to happen, including a creepy cookie jar, the top of which moves by itself. About half an hour we and we get our first supernatural jump scare, I'm man enough to admit this and the following one did work on me. However, they soon became ineffective. What appealed to me about this movie is that the ghosts are only half the horror, in fact if anything they are the goods guys, despite looking "scary". The real horror is much more real, as her best friend says "Whatever this is it's way beyond ghosts!". The film has a fairly small cast which includes an elderly man living next door who is a chain smoker despite being attached to a portable oxygen tank, and a delightful pet mouse, rightfully given a credit (Twikie and Twixie).
There are some obviously fake reviews on here giving it 10/10 but in a sea of mediocre horror movies this one was slightly better than average. I'd not watch it again but I found it a satisfying watch.
