Quick Synopsis:
Katie has been bothered by a supernatural force for many years. It isn’t until her boyfriend, Micah, decides to start documenting the activity that things escalate. Failing to heed the recommendation of a psychic, Micah takes actions that ultimately provoke the demon to new levels of terror.
The Bad:
- Micah is kind of a goof. He ignores things a little to easily early on.
The Good:
- I liked the escalating level of night-time horror.
- Yes, standing there next to the middle of the bed for nearly two hours is pretty terrifying.
Final Thoughts:
This movie did a good job of creating scary without going overboard. I kept expecting something like the Exorcist at any moment and I am glad it didn’t do that. They did a good job of thinking of creepy different night-time scenarios. The attic cover scene was awesome!
