Blade II and Batman Begins scribe David S. Goyer writes and directs this supernatural thriller about a 19-year-old girl (Odette Yustman) haunted by a "dybbuk" (a malevolent wandering soul of Jewish folklore) that was once a young boy ruthlessly slaughtered in Auschwitz. Casey Beldon (Yustman) was just a young girl when her mother vanished out of her life. And though Casey has never forgiven her mother for abandoning their family, she begins to understand why when a tortured ghost begins stalking her by day, and horrific nightmares make her scared of falling asleep at night. Hoping that her spiritual advisor, Rabbi Sendak (Gary Oldman), possesses the power to make these awful visions stop, Casey enlists his aid and gradually uncovers a family curse that stretches all the way back to Nazi Germany. An entity with the ability to possess anyone or anything that it comes into contact with is stalking Casey from another plane of reality, and it's gaining strength with each new possession. Now, as the curse is unleashed, the frightened girl realizes that her only chance for survival is to close a door that was pried open by someone who was never born, and prevent the force from crossing over into the physical world. Though her sympathetic boyfriend (Cam Gigandet) and best friend (Meagan Good) do everything they can to help, Casey is ultimately left to face this otherworldly horror on her own. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    Ugh ... I thought this was terrible. Horror movies are not supposed to be believable, but this one just made no sense whatsover. Maybe I just needed to pay more attention, but it didn't keep me interested enough to hold my interest.

    Nothing I haven't seen 40,000 times before. The few bits of special effects and CGI were terrible. Acting was adequate, but they didn't have a lot to work with. Lead actress was very easy on the eye and competent, Gary Oldman stooped pretty low for this, but ended up being the only likable character. Had a few "gotcha" moments, but saw them coming. Skip this one and rent Drag Me To Hell instead.

    The same old formula: put a hot girl (who can't act) in a semi-horror with a lame script and hope that people come to see it. Poorly written, acted and directed all around; with a very predictable ending. My advice is to wait until it's on cable or someone you know rents it, but don't spend your own money on this film.
