Review

When teenagers Sophie and Jay try out the Ouija-board app on his phone, they unwittingly unleash evil mayhem into their lives. As the lights go out, Sophie sees the spirit of her cousin who died under mysterious circumstances and later that night Jay drowns in a mysterious accident. Spurred on by her cousin's ghostly presence, Sophie travels to the remote island home of her deceased cousin where the creepy, miniature porcelain dolls called frozen Charlottes orchestrate pain, evil and death on Sophie's extended family. This predictable horror story provides the scratching at night sounds, mind controlling whispers, murderous actions and the mix of paranormal and psychotic character evil that the genre demands. Fans of the chiller channel and Chuckie movies will want to summon this horror story.

Overall Book Score: good
