    The Sound: Absolute garbage fire
    The Sound otherwise known as Paranormal: White Noise is a dreadful ghost themed horror.

    Starring Rose McGowen, the excellent career villain Michael Eklund and industry legend Christopher Lloyd it tells the story of a supernatural debunker who finds more than she expected on her latest case.

    The moody dark setting is great and was rather unexpected, but that's where the redeeming qualities both begin and end.

    The plot quickly falls into the realms of stupidity, cliched unadulterated stupidity. You know what's worse than a stupid plot? A stupid plot that is riddled with plot holes, inconsistencies and unanswered questions.

    I've seen some poor horrors lately but The Sound truly takes the title as the worst. With Lloyds minimal screen time, all the questions regarding Eklunds place in the film and McGowans botox being so excessive she's unable to shift facial expression throughout it's made that much worse.

    This is a sound not worth hearing.

    The Good:

    Decent setting

    Lloyd and Eklund

    The Bad:

    Plot holes

    Incredibly boring

    Things I Learnt From This Movie:

    Christopher Lloyd must be doing a Robert Englund and be paying back to the industry to agree to do a film like this

    With those new lips McGowan has the acting range of Kristen Stewart

    I'd love to do that job, professional debunker!
