    DEADLY INTENT is a really fun and mysterious ride!

    DEADLY INTENT is a really fun and mysterious ride! As some other reviewers wrote, Deadly Intent is seriously scary. Whether it's paranormal activity at home or losing a family member, it ratchets up the tension at every turn making this a great indie psychological thriller that veers into paranormal horror seamlessly. The story sets itself up and just when you think you know where it's going, it keeps you guessing and engaged. Additionally, this film feels like a big-budget film, technically flawless, with exceptional performances, Deadly Intent delivers the goods! Cheers!

    Good film if you are having problems falling asleep

    My quick rating - 2,6/10. I am on a roll today. Another boring movie, this time with a ghost of a father killed during wartime coming back to reclaim his son. Stuff falls off shelves, toys move around, things go missing....seems like what happens in everyones house, really. This big huge ordeal (read the IMDb plot, makes it sound like it is) is just there. Since the ghost is evil, I guess the entity is a better word. But in the end, this is just dumb. Bonus point for the scene where the mother tries to use a makeshift ouija board out of a household glass and the words yes and no written on paper. They should've used cgi for that to make this movie more ridiculous. The bad part is, I bet the film makers actually were trying to be serious about this film. I am serious when I say, don't waste your time unless you are related to someone involved in it.

    Ghost Dad!

    This was pretty great English melodrama take on a paranormal movie. Was it a high budget? No. But the practical fx made me happy and the acting lives in a space that I find oddly enjoyable.

    This ghost dad is very pissed off! But what a great character motivation to have it be from essentially PTSD or shell shock or whatever we are calling it now. AND HES COMING FOR YOUR SON. love it.

    Psychotic ghosts are always the best ghosts in my book! Worth a watch if you are in a mood or some fun spooky English times.

    Effective and mesmerising

    A creepy, fun thrill ride featuring a wonderful central performance by a mesmerising actress. The mysterious goings-on keep you guessing until the end. I really enjoyed the artful way in which they did the haunting. Very effective and recommended.

    Decent thriller worth a watch!

    When her husband dies Bryony tries to rebuild her life with her young son James. The young actor who plays James provides a terrific performance. James in typical movie fashion starts acting weird and withdrawn.

    Although parallels could be made to something like "Babadook" and even "Kill List" this UK chiller really does stand out on its own.Some really good performances help enhance the quality of the script. Although there are some jump scares here and there they do not overdo it.

    Kudos to the crew as for a low budget independent film they do a very good job
