Solid Scary Stuff

This movie has a minimum of magic, and leaves room to argue there is no magic at all. But it really looks like the crew of college kids are in trouble with the supernatural, and it's fun to watch and never boring.

So, pace is great. Acting is great. Casting is fine too the people are all reasonably pleasant to look at, but are not unbelievably beautiful. Which means the viewer can focus on the story.

The story is constructed well, nothing too original but that doesn't mean it's bad. There are barely any moments of overly dumbness, which would be normal for the genre. The plot holes are far and few in between.

I would have wished for some closure. But maybe there is a sequel which would be awesome. I rate 8 stars because the couple of jump scares and overall spooky atmosphere was spot on and I was entertained throughout the whole thing. <3

I am migrating my reviews from a different site which has become simply garbage. TMDB looks awesome and I look forward to be a part of it.
