The trailer made this seem incredibly generic and forgettable.


I feel like I've already seen this, like the myriad of other supernatural thrillers that are entirely forgettable once the film ends.

Touch darkness and darkness touches you back.

The trailer did remind me of Case 39, except this time the kid's not evil. Probably. Something about it also put me in mind of The House at the End of Time, and that actually makes me feel very hopeful that it will be good.

Came here to say the same thing. I'm so sick of those overused sleights of hand. I want to see a trailer where the kid looks under the bed...And that's exactly where the monster is. That would actually be more unpredictable nowadays than the 'unpredictable' jumpscares.
