      Audience Member Decent watch at best, probably won't watch again, and can't recommend unless it is for a Bad Movie Night. I was so happy it wasn't the movie where they play flashlight in a graveyard and invite a ghost to play, but that momentum quickly faded. It's like "As Above, So Below" and "Pitch Black" had a rather boring baby movie. Don't get me wrong, the premise is good: girl is linked to a demon that hides in the dark, but can physically hunt down and rip people apart. Plenty of potential to hold up to either of the parents, and thank goodness they didn't do this as found footage. With the merry band of idiots, I don't think I liked any of them as characters, to throw as fodder to a demon I was expecting to be excited about it getting them, but I just didn't care at all. The effect work was amazingly good compared to the rest of the movie, so they definitely prioritized what they thought would be their pivotal moments on the spread sheet at least. Honestly, go watch "As Above, So Below" and then "Pitch Black", then the rest of the "Riddick" series, then you can come back and watch this. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review sarah s The monster of the movie was well done (less is more.) The storyline was predictable and there were things hinted at but not fully explored, other irrelevant stuff pushed to the forefront instead. It wasn't the worst attempt at a scary movie, decently placed jumpscares (except one that was lame and VERY predictable) Overall, not a bad way to waste some time. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Very good suspenseful movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Bad acting. Plot is not well thought. The concept was good but it lacked so many things to make the movie great. Kinda got the chills from lights off but that isn't also well executed. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie had a chance to be great with how the opening sequence went and the show of character, but later it starts jabbering about characters relationship that viewers have no idea of nor care. The effects of the friend of Amanda reminds me of the 'Cankerman' movie, yet I would have liked to known more about Amanda and how she befriended the entity. Of course, everyone dies and the credit rolls only causing me to yawn. I saw great potential only to be disappointed. Possibly watch this with friends only to mock at it if you are interested.
