I actually kinda liked it. It got pretty damn ridiculous at the end, but it definitely had some really good visual horror in the beginning. Got considerably less scary as you found out more about the plot. But I wouldn't say it's a bad movie.

@slyliquid4985 and you can even still use jump scares too, it just has to be done right. I though The Conjuring: Devil Made Me Do It did a good job of that, and it's not the best movie ever, but it was pretty reserved with the jump scares, it actually made it scarier to me because it was more about the suspense, and a lot of the times you thought there was going to be a jump scare, there was nothing. It kept you guessing in that regard. The fake out, not jump scare.

Yea, it could have been pretty awesome if they kept it within the realm of telepathy power and all that shit. No need to have him be impossibly physically powerful, despite being the same body as a tiny chick, doing everything backwards. But "ridiculous" is probably the one word that describes this movie if you had to confine it to one word.

@JDG3981 I mean, I guess so, I'm not trying to nitpick too much because obviously this movie takes place in a universe that's pretty out there. I just think they could have done away with him/her being that absurdly overpowered.

I would say it's worth a watch at the least, it's definitely not a cookie cutter, horror by numbers typical Hollywood shite. It's weird as hell though.

@TheDanken07 ummm, Chucky is a doll bro.

@TheDanken07 but I get your point, all I'm saying is that the character in this movie isn't presented as supernatural or anything like that, but the thing living in the back of her head is? Just doesn't make sense. All the characters you mentioned do have some kind of supernatural powers, I'm not saying any of this is believable obviously, I'm just saying it's internally consistent to their movie's cannon.

@makaron9363 not about realism though, it's about consistency. If Gabriel is that strong then the chick is too, this would have been such an easy fix too, they could have had some seemingly insignificant scene where she opens a jar of pickles or something and it explodes, and she's just kinda like oh damn, I never knew I was that strong. Bang. Problem. Solved.
