I got this film from Poundland - not only that, it was 33p. That gives you a good idea of what this film is like. I'll start with the positives - it won't take long. Though the characters followed the teen slasher prototype, one of them was actually likable!! Also the "hot" one had a more fleshed out character than usual which was nice.Now onto the bad stuff. The rest of the characters were either actively unlikable or super uninteresting. The jock type was absolutely unbearable - overly obnoxious and soul destroying to watch. The plot was straight up weird - too many elements squashed in. (Spoilers ahead) So we have a demon child, then multiple demon children, then the parents are murderers, then there's bad cgi smoke demons, then the murder parents are possessed by smoke demons, then the murder dad has a demon child army for some unknown reason, and the little girl is a ghost or something. Like what? Who wrote this? Who looked at this script and thought it made sense? Also at the start there was like a 2 minute stretch of watching the characters IM each other? Not sure why? The special fx were terrible throughout and the music was ehh.However I am glad I watched this because I discovered my favourite moment of Cinema. There is a golden moment when they hear loud demon noises from the barn, and murder dad explains them away by saying "probably just a critter". And everyone just accepts it!!! Magical. Comedy gold.

I have actually sadly seen worse than this but it greatly tops the charts in a bad one! I found it too incredibly predictable and the lighting where there was much of any at all through the entire movie was far too dim to see much of anything! For the most part it was too dark to identify anything really going on which dropped any interest I may have had right from the start! There were no characters you could relate to or care enough about whether or not they survived which any good or decent movie has! This cast was whiny and not very likable so I honestly didn't care what happened to any of them! I can't believe I made it through the whole thing considering how bad it was but I kept hoping it might actually get any at all better than it actually was! That never happened and all this did is to leave the viewer with questions never answered during the movie! I previously enjoyed things with several of the cast members so I tried to give this a fair chance but it was so unbelievably bad I can't see myself making that mistake again any time soon! I have always tried to be fair about movies and TV shows reserving my thoughts and opinions until I see the things in their entirety and to form my own unbiased opinion however in the case of this story I honestly wish I had read the reviews and opinions of people who had previously seen it because it would have spared me a bad movie viewing and the time spent struggling to watch it all the way through to the very end for what seems like nothing but a horrendous movie experience I can't undo! I think from now on I am going to attempt to read some of what people have to say about something before I spend time viewing it to spare myself this! Future viewers beware!

I'm writing this as the movie is still going because I can't commit to watching this anymore. There is so much happening in this movie. Creepy country house, weird little girl, ghost kids?? Or feral what was that about???, shadow figure, country bumpkin murderers, college road trip gone bad, murder pits.... It's a disaster because they don't bother connecting the concepts. It feels thrown together. This is what scares people? Let's us all of it.It's writing assuming your audience is too stupid to need a plot that makes sense. It works for some horror movies, but this just wasn't scary on top of it.The dialogue felt improvised, badly. The plot devises to separate the group to kill everyone off was terrible. There was no carry-over in motivations (Lucy was so important and then they sit on the porch and cuddle and forget about looking for her, and then later they see a shadow figure but she completely forgets about it and sits in the house crying with Lucys mom)The whole thing devolves into nonsensical chaos (which I'm watching now) which still. Isn't. Scary. It doesn't have to be a genius plot to be a good movie. Any kind of effort in a coherent plot, character motivation, and dialogue would be nice. This had none of that.EDIT oh of course it was a demon children movie. Thank god it also managed to include a scene with sexual assault and a girl running half naked because that was what this movie was lacking //sarcasm

The movie portrays itself as a terrifying supernatural thriller but comes across as a B grade try hard horror movie. The basis premise of this movie is that a group of friends plan a getaway for a weekend together. On the way to their destination they find a lost girl and then proceed to take her back to her house. While at the house strange things happen. The plot definitely had potential but the script is rubbish and the acting is amateurish. There is perhaps one good jump scare in the entire movie. This movie is more laughable than scary. The ending does not even make sense. Is the girl real or not? How does killing strangers help build this army made of children? By the way the ending leaves you guessing what will happen, as if we care when the rest of the movie is a waste of time. Wait for this on free to air TV.Jackal
