Invocación mortal

Another one of those awful casting decisions. Grown woman, some in their late twenties (and looking so) playing spoilt preppy brats is once again quite laughable. Why directors believe the CV's stating 'playing age', is beyond normality, do they look at up to date head shots or actual age? Subsequently you spend most of the film questioning said decisions and wondering if any females in the mid-teens actually exist.

As for the film, well direction is fine, the story is ropey, going from idiot girls to Nancy Drew and almost Scooby-Doo in places, which would have been believable if teens were in the roles. Seasoned horror fans will guess the plot, deaths and reveals as nothing is actually new. The score is a consistent annoyance, going from 80's to 40's, to orchestra to synth etc, but you will watch and see worse nowadays.

However you still can't get past the terrible casting and dreadful acting, the ballet scene drives home just how bad it actually is.

No, just no! I'm sorry but as youthful as Suki Waterhouse looks, at almost 30 years of age (she'll be 30 on Jan 5), she is NOT a credible teenager. Come on! We forgave 'Grease' for casting 30 year old's as teenagers, and that was decades ago, surely the cast directors/producers could have cast someone in their late teens or early 20's, there's so many talented English actors that would have been so much better suited for this role!!!

Original story but no character development, Lame acting, no chemistry amongst the actors and zero scare factor. Acting is horrible and easily forgettable.

The only thing that made this watchable was Suki Waterhouse. It's an average teen mystery of the horror genre. I wasn't bored, it was a watchable time passer for a Sunday night. Held my attention. I did find some of it predictable, I predicted the reveal, maybe others won't. Was it scary? No. Was it intriguing? Yes.

If you like this type of thing and have nothing else to watch, stick it on as an okay time passer.

All the clique girls deserved to be offed one by one.
