Not a horror, not a thriller

Rating: 3/10 (15 January 2019)

Should we have low expectations of child actors because they are children? In this case, if you have low expectations, they may be met. Personally I don't believe we should lower our expectations and there have been plenty of superb child performances to underline this. On the other hand, they are children, you may want to make allowances . What excuses do the director and screenwriter have?
The plot is aimless, dialogue trite. Decisions made by the characters implausible in the extreme, actions taken by the antagonist have no logic even within the context of the story. The effects are ok, and there are one or two neat little jumps but in general the whole thing lacks any real tension because of those fundamental flaws.
