I'm honestly not sure what people don't like about this movie.
Because it is pretty damn good!
It's a period piece, that takes place in the late stages of the 19th century.
In a prison that has been cursed- and is haunted- by a satanic serial killer, who was caught, and put to death, prior to bringing his nefarious goals to fruition.
We find ourselves watching as a priest, ghostbusting expert, and two fledgling paranormal investigators, attempt to confront the demon, with hope they can get rid of the dark entity once and for all- using a combination of spiritual and scientific techniques.
So that it can't attach itself to someone, and escape the confines of the prison walls.
The demonic ghost of the killer has a sort of Exorcist meets Evil Dead vibe.
While the film, as a whole, is like a more dramatic version of Ghostbusters.
Either way...I thought that it was both well done, and highly entertaining!
Though, perhaps it's not what some people were looking for, or expecting.
That being said...it does seem to set itself up for a sequel.
So, if you liked it as much as I did.
You have that to look forward to, in the future.
A solid supernatural thriller, all around.
6 out of 10.
