I know after hearing those words I'll certainly want to pull out my own tooth.

Okay this was pretty cheesey and lame. But it had some creepy music and a few 'oh snap' moments. 4/10

Poor scenario and also too much cliche acts from actors, not interested

The movie started off strong and the "possessed" characters were creepy. However, there wasnt much of a story and the movie devolved into a confusing violence fest with no real substance. I was indifferent to the family and having violence for the sake of violence didnt help the plot. If there was more of a story, then the scares would have been more effective.

I think this could have been better with a bit more plot and better character dialogue and development. Bonus points for the ominous music score and a few decent scares.

An average movie that serves it's purpose when you have nothing better to watch

[5/10]

Noticeably low budget from the get go, but it kept things simple to not overreach it's means. There is a great build up to the first kill that had me literally laughing out loud, so kudos on that. Afterwards, things fall into a pretty banal "run-kill-repeat" rhythm that offers some run of the mill violence, but little else. Some of the dialogue is a bit cheesy, and there aren't many surprises, but it's all fairly acceptable by b-movie standards, just don't ask too much of it. Truth be told, it took me three tries to make it to the end as I kept falling asleep, but I did keep putting it on pretty late, so that one might be on me.

There has definitely been a major marketing push to make this film out to be something it's not.

I'm usually happy to take a low budget into account when watching a film and look for what was done well, but there was very little here to appreciate. Read a five star review and then prepare to be disappointed.

The script was full of waffle and didn't go anywhere - characters stood/sat about giving tedious monolgues supposed to inject meaning.

The directing was mainly static shots that didn't even allow characters to move - a woman tries to direct her boyfriend (after a massive dialogue that should have been left on the cutting room floor) to lights in the garden whilst rooted to the sofa. A family watch a murder, rooted to their chairs.

I liked the actors - though they had to squirm for what felt like hours in every scene to show their terror.

The whole thing should have been done as a short. There's nothing original about the film and there was not enough story to make a film of this length. And not enough money to make it look even that half-decent.

Then the money could have been spent on some polish and the writer would have been forced to consider what the point of the whole thing was.

So bad it's bad!
