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
- Made for fans of a good haunting and horror fans. The scares come from the creaks and shadows as much as the jumps. Fans of Beetlejuice should feel right at home.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 6 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1973: an older pace and style.
- Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.
A pretty young woman, the prisoner of an ancient warlock, must lure men, under his spell, to enact a fatal love triangle again and again.
