About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a harsher, more in-your-face haunted-house-and-possession story with frequent shocks; Not for you if you dislike disturbing themes or want subtle slow-burn chills like Halloween III: Season of the Witch.

Pros: fast-moving supernatural scares; intense, unsettling mood; memorable possession moments | Cons: feels like Exorcist copy; uneven pacing and length; disturbing family themes
