An average movie

To be honest, I wonder why I actually watched this movie. Indeed, I had this movie for almost a year in my queue and, seriously, through the whole duration, I kept wondering why I didn’t get rid off the damned thing at some point. I guess I was curious to see Shay Mitchell in her first leading role (she actually made only 4 movies including this one though). Anyway, the damned thing was pretty weak even if I have to admit that the concept did have some potential though. Indeed, there is something really creepy about morgues, especially at night. Unfortunately, they didn’t do anything interesting with this concept. Right from the start, the intro delivered your basic exorcism scene and not only it was rather tedious, on top of that, it basically spoiled most of the movie right from the start. At least, it was fun and surprising to see a Dutch actor, Gijs Scholten van Aschat, playing one of the priests, but it probably had to do with the fact that the director, Diederik Van Rooijen, is a Dutch guy himself. Concerning Shay Mitchell, sure, she looked lovely and she did what she could with this material but, to be honest, she wasn’t really convincing. In this kind of movie, instead of actually developing the characters, they spent much more effort on making sure that the leading lady has a casual look while still being really attractive which is always rather annoying. A bigger issue with this character was the fact that it didn’t make sense that someone obviously fragile mentally would be given such a mentally stressful job. Anyway, to conclude, the more I think about it, the more I believe that my rating was actually rather generous for this movie, I really struggled to care about the damned thing and you should probably avoid it.
