Don't understand the low score here. It was really thought through to not be just another remake with a different name. I can really appreciate that. I used to love horror. Today's so called horror movies are either just another disgusting zombie movie or some other sort of gore, or my worst pet-peeve a cop-out. I liked that this one tried to stand on its own. It deserves a better rating.

The say you can tell if a movie is going to be any good in the first 15 minutes. Well it only took me 5 to realize this was going to be terrible. Slow, dismal and boring is the perfect way to describe this film. 3 stars.

Professional or arm chair (IMDB users)! Granted there is nothing new in this tale ripped from the works of H. P. Lovecraft (ancient Gods) and advanced math (symbols for numbers in a formula structure). That in itself is new tho, as I have read a lot of Lovecraft (sing that to Led Zep "Whole lotta Love - Craft.... Whole lotta Love - Craft..."), and he never, in my readings, equated mathematics with opening a gateway that ancient Gods can come walking in through! Well acted and atmospheric.

This movie had great scenery and wonderful momentum...the acting was top notch and I was into this movie! However...the last part of the movie left me hopeless. I know that literally ALL horror movies rarely have a happy ending...which this one certainly did not. I don't do spoilers, but at one point in this movie...you're going to go "WOW! What a mom!" You're going to be disappointed. People in horror movies buy homes and NEVER do the research into them. It's painfully too late when they start the research into the haunted house they purchased for practically nothing. Duh. The house sold for nothing with ALL the furniture in it. Yeah. Something seriously wrong with that deal. When something is too good to be true...it usually is. And then the house eats your family. The end. Peace.

A family moves into an old house with Hebrew letters carved above particular doors. The letters Lamed (L), Vav (V), Yod (Y), Tet (T), Nun (N) spells Leviathan, which is the demon that is spoken about being the beast. When the daughter disappears the mommy starts connecting the dots and begin to realize that she needs help in order to save her family from an ancient demonic entity that uses the house as a gateway. This occult themed movie got satanic and alchemical elements throughout and comes across more like a thriller than a horror. If you are expecting gore you will be disappointed. It builds up tension till the last horror-part concludes. If you are into horror and the occult in general you will probably like this one.

I have watched countless bad films in this genre. So I am not surprised or disappointed with this one. The script is boring and even absurd at times. Acting by Elisha Cuthbert is the sole reson of two stars, the rest of the acting is annoyingly bad. Characterization or character development is non-existent. I will not comment on the high rating reviews. If you are not familiar with such reviews by now, you do deserve to watch this one. Watch only if you have nothing better to do, or have a hobby of wasting your life watching crap movies.
