The film from director Mark Neveldine is so over the top that one can't help but imagine how the Wayans brothers might lampoon it, then embarrassingly recall them doing exactly so in "A Haunted House."

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Mark Neveldine's first solo directorial effort is a silly, shrieky and eminently watchable exorcism thriller.
The director Mark Neveldine deploys queasy lighting and a trembling score, but his best choice is to let Ms. Dudley stare at us. She conveys unnerving shifts in self-awareness and sinister intent with her eyes.
It's been a few weeks since the last found-footage demonic-possession chiller, so it must be time for another.
It's the rote B-movie that Neveldine up to now has tried so hard not to make.
