Review of The Apparition (2012) by Mirza Mohd S — 11 Nov 2012

A silly, paranormal horror film involving a young couple who thinks their new home in the desert is haunted, but alas "it's not the home who's haunted, it's you!" as they are told.

There are zero jolts, scares, nada! Not even the obligatory cat jumping into the film frame - it's dull, poorly acted & scripted - the lead gal (Ashley Greene) is a vet who stumbles across boyfriend's paranormal equipment in the garage & instantly knows how to hook everything up & use it - she's also displays no compassion when a neighbour's dog is killed by the house! The ridiculous level keeps building 'til they discover, the entity will keep coming 'til you wear out & give in.

So the poster gives you an idea of the ending. It's not as bad as the found footage disaster from this January "The Devil Inside", but comes mighty close. The film was shelved for 2 years when WB broke the contract with the once reputable Dark Castle production team.

I think we can see why...
