It doesn't offer anything new to the genre, but chugs along pretty well until the plot holes begin to pile up.

Rated: 3/5

This update of the Tooth Fairy legend takes the familiar and tries to make it terrifying but horrendous dialogue and weak performances will aggravate even the most forgiving horror fans.

Rated: 2.0/5.0

Yet another ghost story that insists there's nothing more chilling than a professional woman charged with raising a child on her own.

Potentially good movie but far too many uneventful scenes to bore you to tears

I was very impressed by this horror/suspense movie. I would recommend it to any horror/ghost story fan. The twist ending is ingenious and you will never see coming.

I won't deny the film has it's chilling moments, and the final twist is actually pretty cool, but The Haunting of Helena is also stuffed with wooden acting, sloppy pacing, and cheesy CGI that completely dissolve the movie's ability to be emotionally engaging.

This movie doesn't even deserve half a star. It fails in almost every aspect and doesn't t deliver anything other than boredom and a headache.
