Wow, what a great flick! The movie is visually spot on and the cinematogrophy does a great job of marrying beautiful imagery with darkness and despair. Ultimately a story of karmic debt and bad choices made all around, but painted with a deft hand at storytelling. While measured in pace, the slow build leads to a big payoff, so it was worth it! The cast did a great job also!! Oh yeah, I really loved the score. Simple and Haunting!
If you are looking for a Rob Zombie gore fest then this is not the movie for you. But if you are looking for a creepy and (Bloody) tale of witches and demons told through the viewpoint of Generation Z then this is your film.
For lovers of "It follows", "Rosemary's baby", and "The Witch".

Slow Brooding Horror!
Never had sex outside of the family
A trio of townies in upstate, N.Y. break-in to homes. Sean (Eric Nelsen). Brian (Justiin A. Davis ) and Kerry ( Eden Brolin) are also recreational heroin users. A new couple moves into town. They have a chest full of money, unlocked and easily noticed by the movers with a c-note popping out of it. They also let it be known in town, the wife will be left alone on Thursday. Clearly a setup, one where I expected they were mafia looking for revenge.
At 18 minutes (mini Plot Spoiler) we discover they are witches with specific plans to satisfy their ruling demon.
I liked the fact I didn't know where the plot was going. I didn't like the socially awkward character of David (Ross Wellinger ) who reminded me of a sci-fi android that needs someone to bring out their feelings. I also didn't like his punk Bieber-Timberlake "beard". The film had some good scenes, but the plot seemed to move slow. The dialogue was very dry and at times "Twilight" bad. Didn't see the ending coming and where the heck did the baby come from? I think they missed a scene.
Guide: F-word, sex, nudity (Eden Brolin)
King Rip Off
This movie is sort of a rip of of a Stephen King book/movie. Only it's not good.
The acting is horrendous. There's a semi hot chick with nice knockers in a mustang convertible early on who absolutely ruins the attraction when she opens her mouth. She can't act herself out of a paper bag.
Her boy toy boyfriend is just as bad.
The story drones on and on with no direction. It's slow. It's boring. You will hate it.
