The actors, at least, we're on the ball, but most of the rest of this was a huge disappointment. The sound was awful - loud does not mean scary, folks. The flashback images didn't add to the narrative. The spirits were underutilized, and when they were used, it wasn't effective. The ghost of Daniel's mother was intended to be frightening and somewhat sympathetic, I think, but instead I was distracted by how bad her hair was and the overall cheesiness of the scene. The "party" everyone was so excited about had maybe three people. . .where was everyone else? The exposition would have been much better as an actual scene. I didn't care at all about the characters that died, and none of the mains were in enough jeopardy to get worried about. Last but not least, whoever did Natalia Dyer's hair should be shot. Overall, it's a swing and a miss. Foul play. They lost.
