Okay, okay...I know this thing was released two years ago, but yet I'm gonna give my opinion about it... DON'T WATCH THIS MOVIE! If you don't wanna lose an hour and 33 minutes of your life, do a favour to yourself and don't watch it. It's boring, slow and also it's only terrorific on first 2 minutes and then it's just an empty and slow "horror" movie.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

It's rather beholden to The Conjuring (and uses the same title font) and, while writer-director Fowler obviously knows his horror, he doesn't really show enough imagination here to blaze a bloody trail of his own.

Rated: 2/5

La Nación (Argentina)

Although it seems that [the film's] weakest point are lack of originality or serial plot holes, what really fails in Lawrence Fowler's film is the dearth of inspired risk-taking when designing each death... [Full review in Spanish]
