Eerie

It is not a complex or very elaborated movie, it is simple, classic and conventional, but, it has good shots, nice cinematography, interesting plot and a good ending.

This movie has a huge problem: it's extremely repetitive. There are many scenes almost identical to each other, the central part of the movie is basically a never ending loop of predictable jump scares. The plot itself is very basic and the pacing is terrible.

The movie was extremely disappointing. I had high hopes because of the reviews on social media which turn out to be faked or paid reviews. Bea Alonzo and Charo Santos did their best in delivering their lines. However, the storyline is boring and predictable and even the evil ghost Erika is not scary at all. It looks like a film made to scare kids on the cinema. I have wasted my time and money on this overly hyped movie.

The good: Effective lead actress. Watchable 3rd act.

The bad: The 3rd act paid for all the sins of the 1st and 2nd, and that's the most one can say. Movie's a snooze fest, which isn't necessarily bad because slow burn horrors are usually the better ones; but a snooze fest of cliches? You'd lose count of all the movies this one is trying so hard to be. Quite a handful of nightmare scenes, Freddy Krueger would be offended. Japanese horror? We've got you covered. James Wan? Sure thing. A very important school staff meeting to discuss a student's death? Sure, do it in a chapel lit only with candles; because, you know, a school office of some sort is just too unhorror-ish. What else can we put in it? Oh, yeah, make it 1995. There...Eerie. ;)

Odd cliche-ridden horror flick on a strange Guidance Counsellor who dabbles in the supernatural to help teen girls who are dying one by one in a convent. Starts out slow but picks up in the end. A fine representation of the genre from Southeast Asia.
