I'll get the positives out of the way - the setting/scenery is very nice and the camera work is decent - after having watched too many low budget "horror" films, that look like they were filmed on a phone. Thank God for drone footage being so accessible these days. "Amirite"? It's the best part of the film. The mom actress is also OK in some scenes.
Wow, so female ghosts of slave owners from centuries ago have boob jobs, skimpy modern clothes, use smart phones, have acting abilities of amateur adult film performers and their male counterparts can fix modern cars. I had no idea.
The story of a family, moving into an old, haunted house, with the kids being all spooky and the mother freaking out, is as old as hills. It's been done one million times, so you can't really be mad at the story - you can however, be mad at how badly it's done.
Among all the unnecessary scenes, one of the very worst is the lillith ghost climbing out of the well, covered in blood, walking like a...like a..."err miss, are you having a stroke?" Kind of way. A useless, badly filmed scene. So a perfect fit with the rest of this whole fiasco.
The male ghost's acting is so weird, him being also the director only makes sense. He's got a good physique though, for what it's worth.
The one redeemable plot twist was not really having a daughter that drowned - had they capitalised on this, it could have pretty much "saved" the film.. well...that didn't happen. So who is haunting the place, the slave owners, the daughter of previous owners, that drowned in that pool, the cuckoo mother, all of the above?
The 4.6 current rating is a lie, there's absolutely no way. I've been bamboozled, scammed and conned to watch this film based on this deceiving rating.
