OK... right off, there is no gore, no explosions, no nudity, very little action/violence... the 'demon' only shows it's ugly face in a couple of quick flashes. So, it's not for the short attention span crowd. Also, it's also not for the crowd who need everything explained in nice clear expositions with a pretty bow tying it all together at the end. For the rest of us... it's not a bad little thriller. 'Little' both in that the budget is obviously tiny (most of the cash probably went to hire Ms. Redmond) and there's no world-threatening conspiracy. Most of the movie takes place at night and it has the feeling of an intimate little tragedy. Only when the sun comes up does the mood come somewhat undone... I would have preferred the story keep to the cover of darkness. The only real disparaging thing I'd say about it is that the casting/characters/direction are as bland as a sack of oats. Not that the acting is bad... it isn't... but the folks they chose are so blandly 'thespian'. For a pack of evil sinners and demons they a pretty ordinary looking (for Hollywood) bunch... no one is too pretty or too ugly or too old or too young... none of the performances are noticeably weak or inspiring (though Ms. Redmond has the heaviest sack to carry so props to her). It's a decent/interesting story but it could have used some more imagination in the casting and character dialogue and direction and... well... it generally could have used more imagination... and I'm not equating 'imagination' with FX or action or gore... just some more flavor to the faces, words, performances. Still, I enjoyed it... and if it really is the first of a trilogy I'll be sure to be there for the next one.

Oh man.....I just read someone's positive review of this abomination, and I'm not the least bit surprised it came from Canada. (where the film was made) No doubt still laughing their way to the bank because suckers like me rent this drivel. This film blackens radiation level buttons. I have no doubt that if you turned on the Beatles White Album, drank a bottle of wine, put this movie on, and then did a crossword puzzle or something, this film could be entertaining. What is anyone's name in this movie? Detective Porhowski? Why should we care or identify with this woman if we don't know her name? No character development means I am actually rooting for her to get vacuumed up by the crazy demon...or the invisible tooth lady that snuggles people to death. Man, was this bad.... What is the damn deal with the parking garage...of death? I will give slight props to the janitor/parking lot guy, his acting is a clinic on acting from the eyebrows you cannot miss!! But what the hell were these people thinking? The most interesting part of the story is the historical link with the nun's exorcism that we see in the beginning, then is ignored, save one line in the middle, until the post-climax 25 minutes of sloppy wrap-up with a character and her dad that we don't give a crap about anyway....Bottom line, SAVE YOURSELF....RUN FROM THIS MOVIE!!!

Priests, demon-possessed nuns, rape, pedophilia - these are the makings of a good horror film when you add demons and the devil. Will this live up to the promise? Sometimes the concept is good, and certainly Sarah-Jane Redmond and Michael Eklund were good, but the story just didn't go anywhere.There was very little action; mostly just running around and talking. Some characters, like the cops in the precinct seemed to be doing work that was just to explain what was happening, as if they had no other way of doing so.The ending was left up to the viewer and that sucked.No gore, no blood, some puking from a strung out doper, and no boobage whatsoever. I really must have blinked once because I didn't see the nun either.

The beginning scenes of "The Entrance" had me optimistic that the film was heading in an unique and frightening direction. Talk about a teasing let down! The flick opens with a terrified man (Michael Eklund, an Ethan Hawk look alike) fleeing from a demon in a deserted parking garage. He escapes and the next thing we know he's yacking with the cops unraveling some ado about being kidnapped and taken to a dark room where he and others sharing his plight are forced to play games. The losers of these games are subjected to 8mm black and white memories of egregious sins they have committed. Then, one by one, each is violently vanquished from the company of the others. The cop conducting the interrogation (Sarah-Jane Redmond) doesn't buy into it. Once she leaves the room to grab him a drink of water he vanishes. She calls it a night and takes off in her car only to get accosted by the guy at knife point who then demands she drive him back to the parking garage claiming, "They took something from me and you are going to help me get it back!" Excited to check this one out? Don't be, 'cuz the film goes absolutely nowhere ending abruptly at 80 minutes in length and useless. Throughout the tale, some attempt at drawing a correlation between the above and the exorcism of a 17th century nun fails to explain itself and what we are left with is a "WTF-There's an hour and twenty minutes of my life I will never get back!" Seriously, the film had tremendous potential and some unnerving visuals. I suspect finances fell short and creativity was sacrificed for a deadline. Disappointing.
