Review of Playback (2012) by The D — 15 Mar 2012
Woefully bad horror which could seemingly spawn an unwanted series of sequels.
Basically a spirit of a possessed man passes to his each new hosts first born child. When his current host fails to evade the police after murdering his family he jumps through the television in to a petrol sniffing teen. Taking over this body he sets about taking out a number of teens to repeat the possession.
This all has an unecessary pervy role for Christian Slater. Slater plays a cop with a fetish for watching secret recordings of school girls in the locker room!
There's a totally predictable twist and inevitable unsinished conclusion. The slayings are not frequent or gory enough to maintain any entertainment level & this is just poor.
