Nothing particularly new here and what is here is badly put together.
I found it quite a chore to get though and with a 90 minute runtime, that's not good. I think there is a decent scary movie to be made with this subject matter and this cast but the direction is ham fisted and, crucially, in a horror film, the sound is too ordinary.
Are there any good parts to the movie? If pushed, I would say the that Jena Malone is ok, Janet Suzman is fantastic and weirdly Danny Huston seems to phone it in, very unlike him.
Possibly the problem is budget, writing, deadlines or talent. Or maybe a combination of all of them. There are plenty of other movies in this genre to watch, start with the Exorcist and work you way down.
