   I can't believe all of these negative reviews. I enjoy scary movies and this is the scariest I've seen in a while. I'm extremely impressed with how creative the director was in finding ways to make it so creepy. Yeah maybe it is just another "exorcist" movie and doesn't have a ton of crazy twists but if you want to be scared- this is the movie for you! The actors were also amazing.… Expand

   Picture the exorcist... Remove some of the most disturbing scenes and replace the priest by a Jew and you have the film figured out. The possession is not a bad movie, but the possessed child theme is an over-used formula. Either the movie takes the risk to be different with it or it tries to be better.... The possession achieves neither as it is very unlikely to surprise you with it's very familiar plot and characters. Now does it beat the original material it inspires itself from? It doesen't. The "entity" is a bit too shy. Sure you know it's there... But it doesen't do much. Even the parents take 3/4 of the movie before actually figuring out that the child is possessed. The movie actually starts really strong with a very creapy opening scene. I really loved the voices coming out of the box. But after 20-30 minutes it's the "oh too familiar possessed kid scenario", and for the next hour nothing really happens. I was struggling to stay awake. The last 20 minutes are good, but it takes way to much time to get there. The movie needs a better pace, and the story should focus on the box rather than a possessed child. The box scared me because i didn't know what was in it or what it could do. Once the entity from the box switches to the child, you are in familiar ground, you know what to expect. Don't get me wrong, the girl was creapy and scary, but again... i have seen that girl before in other movies and it just dosen't scare me anymore. I give the last 20 minutes a solid 8, but the first hour just dosen't give you enough to keep you sucked in so i have to go down to 6. If you just want a good scary movie, it's good enough. If you are a fan of movies likes the exrocist... don't expect much out of it.… Expand

   I found this film very bleak. It lacked what the trailer had promised, horrifying events, and a spine-tingling feel. The film had a very basic and predictable plot, the acting i have to say was very poor and overall could possible pass for a dark comedy for avid horror fans.… Expand
