Scaperoni Terrible. Especially the young actors (Hunter Alexes Parker and Mason Parker) and the dad (Matt Holbrook). Lara Jean Mummert did pretty well, but she is too much of a stage and theater actor to work well on screen.In the actors' defense, the writing can take a lot of the blame for the disjointed and unnatural dialogue. No one says things like, "looking...right at myself." Or, "...without knowing the background of it." I know Batista was born in the DR but no one proofread the work at all to remove any rigidity or colloquial missteps.

NJA 3 I am not one to publicly trash something, but I don't want people to waste money or time that can be better spent elsewhere, so I am doing this kind of like a public service thing. I was 22 minutes in before I gave up. The first thing I noticed was poor acting, unbelievable characters, and just really bad dialogues. I kind of got that sense right away and the 2nd thing was the awful camera work and editing. The acting is so bad though, please forgive me should any of them read this, but good luck next time. There is really nothing positive I can say, at least about the first 22 minutes. Sorry guys.

nebilcs-168-165298 Having seen the reviews, I wasn't optimistic. First the negatives: the son's lines and behaviour were of someone much younger. The dialogue sometimes sounded odd, like it was dubbed as an afterthought. The latter part was formulaic and the least believable and effective part was the interview/narration which bookended the story. The creature effects were mercifully kept short as they were clearly limited (it's good that this was recognised and understood) although the end shot succeeded as a clever misdirection.The positives: genuinely creepy in places. Surprisingly so given that the flaws would normally have me tuned out of any attempt at building an atmosphere. The soundtrack and sound effects, cinematography and production quality were above average for lower budget indie standards. The script was hit and miss but the acting was again above average, substantially so with Paige who went from homely domestic to yelling possessee and back again. And it was refreshing to not have models cast for every part.Overall and even with the flaws, I thought this punched above its weight which is a credit to everyone involved.

marybethklein Impressive content! Highly recommend! I would love to see more work done by this director. Who ever the casting director was, Great job in casting, great acting by the actors. Loved the creative camera angels. The choice of composer for the film was outstanding. Very believable film. I would like to see a sequel made to this film, as it would lead us to think their is a possible continuing story to tell. The New age Exorcist!
