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.

Rated: 2.5/5

Incantation is a brilliant horror movie, one that will leave you feeling a little lost and a lot traumatised in the end.

Here’s the deal. Incantation is awesome, but I don’t want to tell you why, because that would wreck some of the malign pleasures lurking within.

This is hard work and, ultimately, I'm not sure it's quite worth the effort. There's a great idea in here but the execution drags. The non-linear telling of the story is fine, but there's a silly mistake in the dialogue (which I hope is not in the original Taiwanese) which upsets the timeline and reduces your involvement.

Some genuinely scary moments, bugged down by ugly cinematography and uneven storytelling.
