Review of Jessabelle

Jessabelle (2014)
7/10
Voodoo something to me
10 November 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Well made horror that slowly uncovers a dark secret.

After one frightening scene in the bathroom, no way do you want the helpless heroine to stay in the house.

There's a great plot device of videos from a mother to her daughter, as part of a memory box made when she expects to die from cancer. In the end this gives a couple of tight twists.

The reviews here are too severe - it's well acted, plotted and paced, with the usual non-stop horror soundtrack. If you're looking for scares rather than gore, and you don't mind a bit of voodoo, then give it a go.

Not perfect, but good entertainment. I rank it with The Skeleton Key.
