2.5/5
The horror familiarity and inconsistent logic choices work against a creative approach to the found footage format, though it's anchored by solid performances and a memorable conclusion. Go to Full Review

...When I watched this movie for the first time I had to pause it and turn on the lights because I got too scared. It pulls the viewer into the story making you apart of the nightmare and for that this feels more like an experience than a movie. Go to Full Review

Due F Dec 1 Incantation blends supernatural terror with raw human emotion as Ronan, a mother haunted by an unseen curse, struggles to protect her child while confronting the trauma and mistakes of her past. Despite confusing time jumps and several noticeable plot holes, the film’s atmospheric tension, convincing performances, and effective use of ritualistic horror create an immersive experience that feels disturbingly real. Ultimately, it becomes a tragic yet tender story about belief, consequence, and the lengths a mother will go to face the darkness for her child.

See more Angela F Nov 1 One of the best found footage movies I've ever watch. The movie is able to create an active participation of the viewer bringing you directly into the narrative See more Gabrielle H @Gabriellehou Oct 22 I loved this movie, a lot of people are complaining about the order but it is generally easy to put together if you have an average IQ. The confusion of the film is to replicate the confusion that the main characters are feeling, you are in the shoes of the Mother and her Daughter feeling exactly what they are feeling, seeing the curse torture them is haunting and purely scary. This movie makes you look away, makes you afraid of the curse and how it could affect you. The twist makes it so much better, gives you a feeling of being cursed and not being able to get the movie out of your mind. This movie is truly scary, and truly beautiful. See more P B Oct 13 Interesting ideas and some good acting(especially from the young girl), but this was one of the most chronologically disjointed movies that I have ever seen! See more V W Oct 12 Save yourself an hour 30 of boredom, and confusion and skip this movie. It is truly pathetic that this is marketed as a horror film when the two scares and counting were at the last 10 minutes of the film. The plot made no sense and there was no structure to the movie. I am honestly annoyed that I spent my time watching this disgrace instead of doing something far more important, like scrubbing toilets. See more Read all reviews
