This is NOT a great horror movie *SOME spoilers*

Rating: 1/10 (3 June 2009)

With the seemingly universal acclaim i thought id see a movie that was .. you know.. scary. Those are rare and we're usually left with slasher flicks. But then i saw Sam Raimi was involved so i expected at least a little of the humor of the Evil Dead movies.
There's nothing here. I suppose if you believe in voodoo, gypsie curses, ghosts, seances and mediums it could be scary. I suppose if you didn't see the assistant messing up the goat slaugher a mile away it could be.. well no. I suppose if you didn't see the cheap contrivance of the mixed up envelopes.. nope still not scary. I suppose if you could overlook the incredibly inept acting of the lead actress and if you actually cared about her character rather than believing her a self involved brat you could care. But this movie has nothing.
A dead , immobile body is supposed to terrify us.. and beat up the lead character. An 80yo woman with one good eye is supposed to scare and beat senseless a mid 20's woman. Doilies. In this movie "posessed doilies" are seriously supposed to be scary.
There's just nothing here folks. The production values are OK. The acting, with the exception of the lead actress, is OK. Its just neither scary or entertaining. You'll spend the whole film thinking "ok ill bet it gets scary soon". But it wont.
