3.0/4.0
The film's stand-out performance comes courtesy of Andi Norris, whose turn as Caitlin is everything you want a best friend to be. Go to Full Review
Chris Alexander Fangoria 05/23/2017
3/4
A slow, scary, ambiguous descent into the darkest part of the human psyche and one assembled by filmmakers who remember that what you don't see almost always trumps what you do. Go to Full Review
Scott Weinberg TheHorrorShow 08/23/2015
Starts out as the epitome of predictable and gradually grows more novel as we move on. Go to Full Review

Melissa L @Agent99 Mar 5 I thought it was a pretty good horror mystery film. See more 09/30/2018 All things considered, The Invoking is a strong feature debut. Its measured nature is a quality that more independent feature films should strive for, taking stock of the resources available to the production before leaping off the deep end. See more 07/31/2016 With the relationships and unraveling story line, there is lots to like, but it just doesn't gel together well See more 03/02/2015 Awful boring waste of time. See more 11/05/2014 I honestly couldn't wait for this to be over. It had a slow pace, five-second stills of the ground, the woods, and the fields, and long stretches where the characters were walking, running, or driving. Or just sitting there doing nothing. And worst of all, no closed-captioning so I could watch it at a faster pace. I got to the end and couldn't decide what made me more upset--that the ending made no sense, or that I lost two hours and five minutes of my life I'll never get back. The only reason it gets two stars instead of one is that the acting is superb and believable, the setting realistic, and the dialog snappy. But the pace and plot leave much to be desired. See more 08/29/2014 Do not waste your time on this movie, especially if you are expecting to see a horror movie. Nothing happens. This was the biggest disappointment. I should have know when there were zero reviews on here. See more Read all reviews
