In 1973, a group of paranormal psychologists called on their deceased colleague Charles Reamer. College students Patrick (Tom Felton), Lydia (Julianna Guill), Ben (Sebastian Stan) and Greg (Luke Pasqualino) try to recreate that experiment and something horrible results. Young couple Kelly (Ashley Greene) and Ben start to find strange occurrences in their suburban life. Ben is notified that the attempt to contain the entity has failed.
There is nothing new in this movie. That's not a major problem by itself. There are countless horrors being made and the vast majority are derivative of earlier horrors. The problem in this one is that there isn't anything scary. There aren't even good jump scares. There's nothing here. The use of suburbia and the box store derive no compelling style, tense isolation or creepy undertones. The movie sets up a few interesting visual ideas but none of it is scary.
