Featured review
As I find myself unable to figure out where or how to begin, I'll start off by saying that this just might be the first time a Horror film receives a fair rating on IMDB (as usually, for some reason, people who dislike Horror think giving it bad reviews says something positive or flattering about them). This film is downright terrible, with perhaps four scenes that are not boring, badly written/acted/directed and worthy of screen time.
Of course, most people have only come across this atrocity due to Netflix, where it's called "American Poltergeist 2" (despite having been released two years prior to the less than overwhelming American Poltergeist, so I have no idea how this even works). And of course, there's no ignoring the fact that it doesn't take more than a two minute "research" to realize that whatever "entity" the antagonist is - it's not a poltergeist.
The camera trembles too much. The acting is childish. The "twist" is so forced it's sad. But the first prize by far goes to the audio quality in like half the film. No, there is nothing wrong with your sound card, speakers, television set or whatever. The director has actually had the audacity to release this film in its current quality level (or lack thereof). I don't even think the overall product would have passed a freshman year cinema course, so even implying this is a film that belongs on a paid streaming service is an affront to basic intelligence. Whoever was responsible for putting this on Netflix should know that he single handedly cost them at least half a star of reputation.
