I just kept thinking how scary it would be to be haunted by a ghost that spoke Swedish.

this has the same story we've seen done a million times before with no unique aspects. where's the originality? i'm confident that within only the first 10 minutes, most people could predict the entire plot. do better.

The Evil Next Door

One of the most boring movies I’ve ever watched. Even though I have a short attention span, especially while watching movies, this one was unbearable. The movie lacked the mysteriousness and excitement it needed. Every scene was expected.

The Evil Next Door
