Seance

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.

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

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

A new student at a posh boarding school moves into the room of a student who died under mysterious circumstances and starts to feel like her spirit is haunting her and that her killer might still be out there.

Seance has the atmosphere down pat, but it's filled with an assortment of uninteresting and unrelatable characters who either grate on the nerves or who are so dull they blend into their surroundings. The suspense scenes aren't handled with much care either and they never surprise, shock, or keep the audience on the edge of their seats. There's an attempt and livening up the film during the finale, but it's too little too late by that point.

After a rather promising beginning, if you don't count the cliché "boarding school has his bunch of bullies and one stands up against it", the plot is getting more boring towards the end. I can't say I'm really thrilled about Sceance after watching it. It's all been done before and much better to be honest. The acting was decent, nothing more, but the story felt short. The horror scenes are very mild, not worth mentioning. It's all low budget, just like the quality.
