Not original or interesting

Rating: 4/10 (7 December 2009)

The film is a cheap rip-off of 'The Others' and 'The Exorcist' done in the style of the Blair Witch Project which while not good is far better than this film. The film held no surprises, the acting was poor especially the dialogue which is worse than Blair Witch Project when it comes to characters randomly saying the f-word. It is terribly clichéd, especially how the characters are always ridiculously 'over-curious.' When it turns into the Exorcist in the final third it just turns completely ridiculous and while the ending nearly made me fall out of my seat I felt cheated by it and ultimately made it an even worse experience. Steven Spielberg came up with the ending and while this shows i'm sure he can then direct horror better than the real director Oren Peli but it belonged in another movie and felt out of place. It runs for an hour and a half and quite frankly in the first hour I was completely bored. It has been terribly over-hyped.
