    Good premise but ultimately boring. A decent scene here and there but nothing to save it from being less than mediocre.

    I actually kinda liked the movie. The theme is typical, but the execution was pretty creative. Some creepy scenes towards the end, but the climax was a bit predictable. Either way, still a lot better than the usual mainstream crap we get. I'd give it a low 7/10 or a high 6/10 somewhere around there

    I just watched this for the 2nd time and still think its only ok. Sure there was sum Creepatude to this, but over all it felt more like a decent Amityville sequel then something fresh and new. I think this movie suffered from the hype train. And alot of that had to due with the director's previous Feature, Abssentia. Witch for some reason was critically acclaimed in some horror circles, but i found that one to be more of a critical snooze fest either way Ive seen worse than Occulus

    It is an alright movie, a scare here or there. One scene I particularly like is in the beginning, the first scene with the mirror and the cloths over the heads. 6/10

    Like, so many people out there were trying to track this down. And it just...got delivered on a tweet. What the hell.

    Yeah I think this falls into the recent trend of decent but not great ghost movies like Sinister and the Insidious films.
