Séance

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.

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

Worth a watch this one, supernatural slasher, tidy little twist, sadly genuinely scary horrors are few and far between, sit back and enjoy it for what its worth..

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

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.
