With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, 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
- Tailor-made for people who like the lights on afterwards and people ready for a good cry. The scares come from the creaks and shadows as much as the jumps. Shelve it next to The Conjuring or Poltergeist. It's about loss, handled with care rather than melodrama.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Tense from early on, at 1 hr 37 min.
- What might put you off
- Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.
Jean and Shag Williams locate a newly built house and decide it's perfect for them to buy. One thing the developers forgot to tell them about was that it is built on a graveyard. Within days toilets start to flush by themselves and the garage door moves up and down by its own accord. Will Jean and Shag realize that the place may be haunted by ghosts before it's too late?
