    It is impossible to take it seriously

    The synopsis on the back of the box indicates that this is just some typical film about demons that most of it is but where this movie goes from just boring and average to pure garbage is in the opening sequence when the movie looks more like a hammer horror than a bone chilling thriller. It is impossible to take it seriously, which for these types of films is usually the only redeeming quality. Add some mischievous characters and bad writing, and since Dracula 2000 you have the worst excuse for a scary film.

    Not worth watching.

    One more boring horror flick.The plot just drags on and on. What more can I say. The premise for this movie has been done better in other movies. This one is somewhat predictable. I would not waste my time watching this one again. I hope this helps someone. Hollywood seems to have lost it's creativity. Too bad. There has to be better screen writers and producer's out there. Good and great actor deserve better than this garbage. Critics also need to be more critical of these low budget movies to say the least. I wonder if the movie makers ever use real people to preview these movies before they release them. Maybe a few study groups need to screen these movies. I have been watching movies for 49 years now and have seen a steady decline in the quality of the plots. Hope some imagination returns to Hollywood soon. I would like to see others review this movie and tell it like it is. Bottom line is make the buck as quickly as possible and don't worry about quality. Maybe some more book based movies would work. Or maybe quality movies are a thing of the past. I sure hope not.

    Funny but not scary!

    Wow....that was AWFUL! Bad acting, lighting, the music...I only gave it one star because it was a good laugh. The two leads acted like porn stars, which would be OK if I WERE WATCHING PORN. The story (which didn't develop until the end) probably would've been OK in more capable hands, but it wasn't. There is no gore, blood, not even so much as a paper cut, so if you're looking for that, avoid this one too. We were actually hoping someone would wax one of the kids to at least keep some interest, but that doesn't happen either. Oh and the sound, you get A lot of the "horror violin" music when nothing is really happening. Everyone walks real slow, I guess to build suspense, but it actually drags the movie down. Save your money or better yet, rent a real horror film!

    Yawn

    Allow me to express,the fact that I am no movie reviewer,but this "film" leaves me no option. If you see this title, in the local grocery store snackmachine, run, don't walk, to the nearest exit. This thing is horrendous. It was like watching robots, trying to build robots.(Sorry,Will Smith) Whatever point they tried to make at the end, was completely lost on me, as I was too busy figuring out how much wood, could a woodchuck chuck...

    Boring, and tedious, to the point of absurdity, I saw no link,between the first hour, and the rest of this atrocity.

    My advice? Find another duck.

    I've seen worse

    The best thing about this movie is I a saw it for free on Amazon Prime. A couple of the actors weren't bad until they started talking. The movie also made me think. For example, when the mother was taking a bath it made me wonder why were there candles all over the place? Why didn't the mother or father notice the daughter was dragging a dirty doll around the house? The sound was so bad I'm thinking maybe I missed something. I wonder how much it cost to make this movie and how much money Amazon paid for it. I'm retired and have plenty of time on my hands and think I could probably do a better job than the people who made this turkey.
