A snooze fest for film buffs

Rating: 5/10 (13 September 2011)

Yet another contrived Hollywood demon oriented horror film with little edge or fun for that matter. The writers are too busy trying to dodge the clichés of The exorcist and their previous Paranormal Activity that they do not realize how out of wack their story is. The story is so far fetched in the second half that the horror does not even work. Horror is about believability, taking something audiences can relate to and expanding on the concept to scare them. Director James Won pulls across little believability and little stylistics to make up for it and the result is lacking. I cannot pan it due to its desire to be original but I cannot like it either for the absurdity of the plot elements. Film buffs should move on.
