I had another bad dream.
nogodnomasters19 June 2018
Warning: Spoilers
A family moves into a new home. Mom (Brianne Wigeland) had borrowed money to get dad (Wyatt Kuether) a kidney and didn't repay the unscrupulous loan, fearing they may repossess the kidney...the film they should have made. Instead their daughter Megan, rhymes with Regan, has some minor possession issues that are getting worse.

This is another low budget exorcism film. Special effects include a neck crick, voice distorter, and a modified HellBoy mask. The drama sound track was similar to a bad soap opera. This is a film where mom is the one in charge. The production is a long 78 minutes and approaches being a hacker.

Guide: No swearing, sex, or nudity. Heck, even the covers were yanked off the girl and not pulled slowly. Paul Chau needs to watch some more horror films if he plans on making more.

Trainwreck

There aren't even any trains in it!

No seriously... the entire cast, crew and especially the writer/director should consider a different career...

Started off with chills then lost it after Demon rendering
ScottDWhalen12 March 2019
This movie actually gave me the chills a few times when it started.... Then they showed a rendering of the demon on the ceiling in the basement. I giggled then started to lose interest as the movie got dumber & dumber. They had it, but truly lost it FAST!

Great score shame about the rest....
omendata5 June 2018
Great music from the start boded well for this, reminiscent of old style Jerry Goldsmith scores but this is all this film has going for it unfortunately.

The woeful acting from the very first scene did not give me much hope.

Story: well we have all seen it done to death a million times before and nothing new here sadly. Why if you are going to make a possession demon type movie cannot you come up with an inventive or interesting twist. Quite apart from this, most of the movie is filmed in darkness and you can hardly make out what is going on; I presume to hide the demon special effects/makeup!

The acting is so bad, nothing else matters.
sbsiceland8 August 2018
It's like the people from Waiting for Guffman made an Exorcist rip-off. Crap.

Soooo bad I liked it
zsmdhv29 April 2023
You know that type of movie that's so bad that you can't stop looking at it? This is it. Just like a pug, they are so ugly that's cute. Yup this was it. My husband and I had a great time watching this, not because it the acting nor the plot but because we laughed all the way with the horrible effects, acting and plot. I don't know, so predictable and corny.

Movie is horrible but loved watching it, had a good laugh with it. I don't really know what to tell you. I am still short a few words and this is getting tedious, So I will just try to keep on writing until my word quota is up. Movie is so bad that's distractingly good. Not scary, just ridiculous and funny.

Was this a college movie made just to get credits?

The acting is so bad, you find yourself rooting for the demon to actually win.

I did not understand
henriqueac-6278330 July 2023
I did not understand why so much hate. I mean it is a brief and cheap movie with poor dialogues. The plot is indeed easy: a woman sold her daughter's soul for money, in order to save her husband's life. The woman was skeptical. What happended here is that this is not supposed to be the first horror movie a person watches. And why? Because it is a movie full of clichés and it does not takes itself seriously. For example, the character of the priest, is useless for the plot, it is sheer enterteinment. The mother laughs when she shouldn't and the young girl is stone cold. There are no remarkable characters is this one. This is a movie for those who had watched many horror movies but, now, they wonder: "do I really like horror?". Can I spend my whole carrer provoking the audience? Shooting movies that work as a question "are you really watching this?". Well, I sure can. Why not? Surely, "Another Soul" is sloppy in it's task to depict violence, in the end, for example, they insert the character of the deceased girl's father in the combat totally out of the blue. It was not meant to be funny, however sometimes it was. But it had a solid pace and it was a straighforward flick. Didn't you want tension, darkness and cry, well, it delivered. Funny fact, in the first time I watched, I was did not like it, I was with my head somewhere elsse. This time, I accidentally started watching it again. I was not utterly bothered by it. It was what I call "a 4AM horror movie".

Bad actress
countrypixi13 July 2020
It was an ok watch. The "mothers" acting was absolutely almost intolerable. I hate to smash someone but watching her acting was almost painful lol.

What.
angelotaylor-6077023 February 2022
I created an account just to write this, never felt the need to write a review but after this movie I feel as though I need compensation from the director/writer as well as an apology for every single actor cast in this atrocity.

Blah
Stephanie-Hurst27 October 2021
The actress that portrays Susan, shouldn't be allowed to act. This movie could have been good, but it just wasn't. Sub par plot, sub par dialogue, and sub par directing leave this movie much to be desired. Don't waste your time.

It's a almost a parody of a possession movie
trancejeremy27 May 2022
This is so unoriginal taking cliches from virtually every recent movie of its ilk, from Paranormal Activity, Insidious, Conjuring, etc. Everything is so obvious and blatant, like gags from Scary Movie or such, but they aren't gags, it's dead serious.

There's also no suspense or character development or a build up , just boom, hey I think our daughter is possessed so I'm going to watch her with video cameras. Which is probably creepier than anything in this movie.

I ain't lookin' for Shakespeare!
reb201426 March 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I did not go into this expecting a James Cameron /ILM blockbuster.

I went into this knowing that it was a low budget labor of love.

Let me state: I have absolutely nothing to do with this movie or those involved.

I felt it started off a little slow. I know that parts of the back history had to be established, but it just seemed a bit to get going.

These are just some suggestions that I felt would have tightened things up and added to the movie, even though I know with budget restrictions, it is hard to do so.

-Not everything needs to be explained, especially when dealing with the supernatural.

-Perhaps, during the "drowning exorcism," the lights could gone out to help cover the demon's exit. The demon leaving the bathroom by using the door and walking out really took me out of the movie. Even if the demon would've gone "poof" in a pillar of smoke, that would've been a better exit.

-In the finale, I really feel that a wind machine and a fog machine would've helped immensely in creating additional creepy atmosphere and would've helped with keeping the demon in the shadows. Maybe even a rain machine, as that might've given the demon some texture.

Believe me, in all my years, I have seen a lot of crap. Overall, this was not that bad. Once it got going, I wanted to see the end. I wanted to see what happened.

I can't imagine that if this director and crew have a decent budget, what they could do next.
