I got this film from Poundland - not only that, it was 33p. That gives you a good idea of what this film is like.
I'll start with the positives - it won't take long. Though the characters followed the teen slasher prototype, one of them was actually likable!! Also the "hot" one had a more fleshed out character than usual which was nice.
Now onto the bad stuff. The rest of the characters were either actively unlikable or super uninteresting. The jock type was absolutely unbearable - overly obnoxious and soul destroying to watch. The plot was straight up weird - too many elements squashed in. (Spoilers ahead) So we have a demon child, then multiple demon children, then the parents are murderers, then there's bad cgi smoke demons, then the murder parents are possessed by smoke demons, then the murder dad has a demon child army for some unknown reason, and the little girl is a ghost or something. Like what? Who wrote this? Who looked at this script and thought it made sense? Also at the start there was like a 2 minute stretch of watching the characters IM each other? Not sure why? The special fx were terrible throughout and the music was ehh.
However I am glad I watched this because I discovered my favourite moment of Cinema. There is a golden moment when they hear loud demon noises from the barn, and murder dad explains them away by saying "probably just a critter". And everyone just accepts it!!! Magical. Comedy gold.
