Monster not a fan of seances. Once, me go to place where everyone gather, turn off lights and get very quiet. Monster’s fur rise on neck and me could feel evil energy in room as we wait for spirit to show up. Waiting in darkness. Waiting in silence. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting so long Monster tink it all for nothing and den, suddenly, spirit appear and everyone shout and spirit shriek and Monster scream and trow Holy Water on spirit to cast it back to Hell. Except it turn out not Holy Water, but akutally a Negroni. And not spirit but, but akutally owner of apartment, Noreen. Also, not seance but aktually surprise party.

Anyway, dat experience scar Montster emotionally partly becuz me get slightly sued for pulling spirit-Noreen around room by her hair shouting “Demon begone!!”, so dis movie very scary for Monster.

It offer a new spin on seance involving teens, social media, and severed forearm dat look suspiciously like petrified remains of Cousin It from old Addams Family series. Rules of seance are simple: 1) Touch hand and say “Talk to me” to see ghost. 2) Say “I let you in” to be possessed by ghost. 3) Sever contact to spirit world by taking hand away and blowing out candle. 4) Clear room of residual evil energy by playing video of celebrities singing Imagine (note: Even spirit-demons tired of Will Ferrell).

And of course tings go perfectly fine until tings go horribly wrong.

Monster love de set-up and find movie veeeeery creepy and compelling – up until last act when it get confusing and main charakter start making stoopid choices. Up to dat point, movie be a thrill ride. After dat, it like going downhill in Grover’s Yugo.
