Plot

A teenage girl (Ashley Rickards) is told by her new boyfriend that she can earn $ 500 by playing a game run by an elderly gentleman who lives in a trailer. After he won the game, the old man (Michael Massee) instructed him to go to the crossroads and say his name so that "he" would know who to take. At home that night, the girl heard voices before being lifted into the air.

A Leigh real estate agent (Catalina Sandino Moreno) is trying to sell the house of Chuck (Dan Roebuck) and Royanna (Jan Broberg). Discussing the details of the couple's properties, Leigh mentioned that he saw a young girl in their house. The couple assumed that Leigh saw their missing daughter, Charlene, who escaped with her boyfriend a few months earlier.

When Leigh returned to the couple's home, he found "Charlene." Leigh calls Chuck to let him know that he found Charlene; However, Chuck told Leigh that the police found his daughter at a local mall a few hours ago. Confused, Leigh looks at the files from the couple's home and finds an article with a picture of "Charlene" entering. Leigh realized that the girl he saw was actually Hannah White, a girl who had committed suicide in 1987. Leigh Hannah's notice disappeared and tried to look for her at home. She finds Hannah in the empty space staring into the mirror. When Leigh tried to speak with Hannah, he was attacked by some invisible force, fell to the floor, and died.

The coroner told Leigh's sister Vera (Naya Rivera) that she died of natural causes. Then at Leigh's house, Vera finds Leigh's file from the couple's home and visits Hannah's childhood friend. Hannah's friend revealed that Hannah was pregnant before she died. Many people believe that Hannah has committed suicide because of her pregnancy. However, Hannah's friends insist that Hannah is a virgin, and that she may have killed herself to stop her supernatural child from being born. Because Hannah had committed suicide, the devil who tried to have her son took over her body until she could find another ship.

Vera returns to her home, where she is attacked by demonic forces who throw her through a window to fall two floors. Vera woke up in the hospital; he's been in a coma for eight months. The doctor told her that she was pregnant when it happened. During his ultrasonic, Vera saw Satan's face on the monitor and demanded a direct caesarean section.

Six years later, Vera visited her daughter, who had been adopted by another woman. Vera told the girl that she knew who the little girl was and demanded to know why she was chosen. The girl ran away. Vera chases him to a house left in the woods and tries to kill him. Unable to do so, Vera leaves, bringing her daughter with him.

Reception

Rotten Tomatoes, review reviewers, reported that 24% of the 17 critics surveyed gave the film a positive review; The average score is 5.7/10. Writing in Variety, Dennis Harvey stopped recommending the movie, but praised some of its aspects, stating, "Despite the content-wise disappointments, the sophomore feature of McCarthy still shows the awesome attention to things that usually suffer in horror attempts superficially striking, especially credible real-world backgrounds (the inconspicuous location of Southern California shows the middle class slipping toward poverty), natural perfection, and the habit of encouraging spooky control over the "excited!" moments (Still, the pic can use one or two more than last.) Technology and design contributions are also wise. ". Metacritic scores 47/100. Alan Scherstuhl wrote a similar review in Village Voice, writing, "McCarthy shows that he mastered the things we already knew scared us on screen; then, what about something we did not expect?" summoned the "impressive work" and said that "it works as a whole slick and unexpected admirably, and somehow seems to work as three distinct chapters as well. "We Got This Covered gave various reviews, stating that the movie was" a horrible ghost story that I really wanted to recommend, but then again I struggled to maintain a constant relationship with Nicholas McCarthy confusing scenario, packed with exciting ideas and brilliant moments of terror - but nothing is consistently worthwhile. "Best Horror Movie says," When you combine three powerful performances from three very attractive young women (Catalina Sandino Moreno as Leigh, Ashley Rickards as Hannah and Naya Rivera as Vera), you have a very real recipe for success. " EFilmCritic.com praised the show: "They're good enough to make the end more satisfying than it originally appeared after some things became a bit hollow, even if the movie sometimes seems to be preparing something a bit more grandiose." Sound on Sight writes, "Supports fear is a strong player". Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "The creepy atmosphere is not enough to compensate for the chaotic storyline."
