With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for fans of a good haunting and fantasy readers. The scares come from the creaks and shadows as much as the jumps. Liked Obsession? This is a good next one. Its magic has rules, and the story plays by them.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Keeps the tension tight, at 1 hr 28 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.
Jenny Harris has a rather difficult time with the men in her life: her husband is an abusive clown who cheats on her, and her boss is a rude jerk. Her new neighbor Rebecca proposes that finding herself a fantasy lover is the way to solve her problems. A little séance later, and Jenny does in fact have her very own dream lover. Despite him being a beer-bellied guy with a creepy face, he seems rather irresistible and at first improves Jenny's mood quite a bit. What our heroine doesn't suspect is that her dream lover is in fact an incubus.
