06/05/2021 This one belongs on "The Hallmark Channel", not Netflix. OK, so it had lots of "gotcha!" moments, but after a while, it just got silly-implausible. See more 06/03/2021 Erm what was that? Power cut and torches shown at 2 am yet they made no attempt at hiding the fact it was actually broad day light. There's too many scenes that are weak, not enough excitement although they tried to throw a few jump scares in I'm a bit annoyed with myself for watching this. Overall this looked and felt more of a day time melodrama than what it could have been. See more 07/24/2017 Terrible acting, but I was surprised by the killer. See more 01/27/2014 Summoned is a suspenseful story about a man who is innocent but has been executed. His ghost is trying to prove he is innocent. Overall a good thriller.

See more 10/05/2013 In the opening scene, I was convinced the director was doing a "movie within a movie" plot because the opening sequence was so predictably "hacky" and I thought maybe it was begining with a recreation from the DA's point of view or some such. Then I realized that this was the actual opening scene for the move plot. I sat in stunned disbelief as one horror cliche after another was paraded across the screen. But what really did it for me was this: A serial killer is tried in California and sentenced to death. This happens within a five year period of time. The method of execution? The Electric Chair! There are two certainties with capital punishment in California. 1, It takes closer to 25 years between sentencing and actual execution. (You're more likely to die of old age.) 2. California has NEVER used an electric chair. California was infamous for using the GAS CHAMBER for decades until they switched to lethal injection. (Great movie on this is called "Kill Me if you Can" with Alan Alda playing rapist, Caryl Chessman caught and tried in 1948. Even at that, it still took 12 years between sentencing and execution.) I didn't bother to finish this film as I have watched more plausible plots unfold on Gilligan's Island. I would suggest to Cuba Gooding Jr. that if he wants to improve his career, he should really read the scripts before he signs on the dotted line. See more Read all reviews
