Interesting concept, but bad film

Rating: 5/10 (19 July 2014)

The idea of a couple of little girls adopted by a vengeful ghost is very interesting and compelling. If it didn't all transform yet again into a "family doesn't get what is going on with their children in their white picket fence house", it would have been great. Add to it the "fringe scientist" interested in the girls and a mopey story about a woman who desperately wanted a child and you get a real punch down the throat with all the possible clichés that you could think of.
But still, freaky children, insane motherly ghost, rock band surrogate mom, Jamie Lannister (twice)... it could have worked fine. However the lackluster script, the horrible CGI and the dull acting made it a terrible experience for me.
Bottom line: Enough with the camera point of view scares and the CGI monsters that appear from nowhere! It's not the 90's anymore!
