Caveat, Oddity, and now...
Ohm is a writer, and he takes off into Ireland for a bit of a retreat and to dispose of his parents ashes. However, it's not a normal hotel and there's a tale of a haunted room. After a break, he returns to find one of the staff missing, and he decides to look around. Can you guess which room he ends up in?
It's about mythology, it's about the ghosts we carry, it's about do we need more despair? It's probably also about deeper things that I didn't get... but on the other hand, there isn't really anything that special this movie does. Isolated location, people being weird, supernatural events... there is some atmosphere build up, but on the other hand the supernatural is right there, and there are no surprises here. [There is also a good chunk of 1408 in the inspiration too.]
Adam Scott is the annoying yank, or just yank to be non-redundant. David Wilmot and Florence Ordesh give notable performances. And other people were also in the movie. The effects are practical, there is one really good mask, but otherwise it's just averagely decent.
Damian McCarthy has potential, let's see something better.
