The production value wasn't terrible, but the acting was horrendous. The teens actress was completely flat the entire movie. Basically has one facial expression the entire time (like she's slightly bored and confused). The mother was randomly flat and then over reactive (very delayed over reactive at that).
For example, the daughter walks home in the pouring rain. When she gets home the mom nonchalantly mentions that it was pouring earlier and sorry she didn't go pick the daughter up before saying in "Guess I'm the worst mom ever!" in a half hearted 'ha-ha' type tone.
Then later the ghost girl shows up in front of the mom while shes in bed sleeping. Mom wakes up in the most unconvincing "startled" act and ask the girl "who are you" in an angry voice, the girl just says "I want to live." the mom then starts to breath increasingly harder for an weirdly long amount of time before letting out an angry sounding grunt/gasp, throwing her blanket over her head and screaming "Leave me alone" in a way that only reminds me of a teenager fighting with her mother.
I really can't stress how terrible the acting in this is... it's just awful.
