Aura

Good(ish) premise.. Effects are ok and musical score was on the nose, however the acting and script are just terrible.. most lineS feel unnatural and forced and every scene and behaviours of the characters are not plausible in the slightest. The protagonists disregard for his wife's safety and his willingness to pull someone out of a psychiatric hospital... his whole performance is bad and not believable. Supporting actors are awful as well, mother and wife, just shocking. Build up is poor and before you know it it's just another exorcism movie.. just a bad one. Don't waste your time. Actress who played Karen was good and only thing that kept me engaged

From minute one you know exactly what is gonna happen.

So... usually, if there is a trailer available to watch for a B movie, then I watch it to see where on the B movie scale it's gonna land. Because honestly, there's some really awesome B movies out there, and there's some real stinkers. This one, falls on the latter.

Before I go into that let me explain my title. While I was watching the trailer they were putting little review snippets from critics about how amazing this movie is. The first one says, and I quote, "Gives Blumhouse A Run For Their Money" Alan Bryce, Darkside. Now for those of you who aren't familiar with Blumhouse, they are currently by far the number one best horror/thriller movie makers right now. Example, they made the new Halloween movie, they also made "Get Out" and "Ma" and many, many other well known and money making horror movies as of late.

That being said, Allan Bryce must have no soul and will say whatever you want him to say in a review for the right $$$, or...the guy has not one functioning brain cell left. Next, I will never trust ANYTHING Darkside says about a movie from here on out, you shouldn't either. This movie isn't even in the same arena as Blumhouse movies, hell not even the same sport!

So if you've read this far, by now you must've figured out what I think of this movie, if the 1 star wasn't a giveaway to begin with lol. Bad acting, bad effects, bad story, bad delivery, if it's bad, it's in this movie. Skip it and go find yourself an awesome Blumhouse movie to watch.

Till next time, cheers

Really poor acting, the wife is sooo bad, the husband is a wetfish, the mother reminds me of a mother from one of those old films where she controls her kids with religion and shouting at nothing, just crazy, and the other 2 main characters, well one played out to be what she is advertised as but at some old silly fair/circus in a little caravan who managed to pull something off that a so called expert failed to do years ago with her and help from other experts. Yet she manages to get something to work with just herself and the wetfish, and the only one who played an ok part was the sister, and thats because she doesn't really say or do anything, her makeup is quite good too, but as soon as it gets near the end and she has to do a little acting, its just as bad as the rest. You don't have to worry about spoilers, you know exactly what is going to happen and it does so there you don't need to watch it now lol. I wouldn't bother.

Low budget, easily predictable film. Nothing special. You pretty much know from the beginning how it's going to end, and it does. Worth watching once, but not twice.
