Erik K 4d Never played the game but I hope it’s better than its movie counterpart. Not a scare to be found and the acting is hilariously bad at times. See more Mike 6d terrible movie. crappie story line. Another disappointment by shudder See more Sam 6d Not too bad but the storyline is a little all over the place See more David J Feb 23 DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY. horrible movie. no story. not scary.

I wish I could get my money back See more John Feb 23 movie was kind of all over the place. wasnt too sure what was going on and what i was watching until about 30 minutes to ending. See more Teal Feb 16 Acting was ok, visually fine but it felt like it drug on, choppy story and the pieces didn’t seem to fit smoothly. Had far higher hopes for this game adaptation.
