While I admit that this could have been better, it could have been much worse as well.

The story of an evil/possessed antique camera is a good premise, unfortunately. The film is let down by the rather ponderous style it took.

Ray Wise is the best thing about this movie, his offers a good performance which unfortunately highlights the somewhat clunky acting from some of the other cast.

It is not purely a bad movie, it is just not a memorable one. Not bad, not great, it is just there.

This is a shame, because the premise is an intriguing one. A camera that takes portraits that ends in the subject's death, A slightly better script and tighter filming would have resulted in a better movie. But I did not end up turning it off, so that earns it an extra star.
