Haunted house movie? I'm in!
We follow three people who have recently moved into a house (not on Forest Road), but strange things start happening. There is a lot of "did you see that in the background?" moments, although they become more obvious later on. There was Helen Foster, who haunts the town, and she seems to be stalking... but also the sister lost her mother and she is making an appearance too.
There is something about this that grabbed me, and I really enjoyed this. Nice build up of tension, and atmosphere... however the ending moments let it down. Sudden revelations (that a lot of people will probably say they saw coming - I didn't) and then it ends quite abruptly.
I can't say I recognised anyone, but decent performances. The "horror" was simple enough, achieved with practical effects, so easily worked well.
I recommend it, but I can easily see it not appealing to all.
