Interesting beginning, but I don’t quite get the connection with Iraq. Pretty good story, but it takes a while for it to get going. Good music and good, freaky possession sequences, but the film needed more of both. I can see how Poltergeist was modelled after this movie.

About Me
I'm a photographer, web developer, travel enthusiast, and movie buff living in Alexandria, Virginia, USA.In the summer of 1993, I started writing reviews for every movie I saw and haven't looked back. I'm up to 2,321 reviews now. This makes me cool or a complete dork, depending on your perspective.
Some of these reviews contain spoilers, so if that bothers you, don't read!
