"Deadly Presence" is a very slow paced horror movie. It is clear that director Shane Cole wanted to prolong the story in an attempt to build up the suspense and to build up for a climatic revealing of what was going on. And the idea worked in theory, but it failed horribly in the movie. As such, the movie was excruciating slow and uneventful.
The story is about three friends spending a night in an allegedly haunted house, and one of them brings back home with her more than she bargained for.
I will say that the production value was good, and the movie makers did manage to get a good result from fairly limited resources. And the acting in the movie was adequate, although nothing particularly memorable. For a small cast movie, there was more pressure on the acting talents, but they held up themselves well enough.
For a horror movie, you have to look long and far for anything even remotely scary in "Deadly Presence", and the movie suffers badly from that fact.
If you enjoy a good horror movie, then your time and money is better spent elsewhere, as there is very little to be had from "Deadly Presence", aside from acute boredom.
