    The central problem here is one common to faith-based films: The heroes (Reynaldo Rosales and Heidi Dippold) are both overly bland and poorly cast.

    House has a few moments that ring genuinely eerie, but the cluttered, unconvincing dialogue – not to mention Moseley's ongoing penchant for crazed overacting – make it more of a genre curiousity than anything the "Fangoria" gang would likely want to sit through.

    A plodding nightmare that will have you ripping your hair out long before the credits roll. After 45 completely uneventful minutes the "action" begins when four whiny idiots get chased around an old hotel by... something. Then some confusing and under-explained things happen. Then yadda yadda, screaming, sweating, devil worship, yadda yadda... Then fallen actor Michael Madsen (who somehow has top billing despite 10ish minutes of screen time) reappears with 7-8 minutes left to phone in a few lines and die. Oh and apparently everyone died in the first fifteen minutes and this is hell... or something. A well thought-out narrative this is not.… Expand
