"description": "A haunted house movie shot from the perspective of the presence haunting it. Or, well, maybe not — the scariest presence in the house is the family. Sure — some stuff flies around. That's part and parcel of the genre, but the way the film is shot is the real novelty. Daughter loses friend, family relocates to escape the loss (but really to benefit the son that the mother dotes on). The daughter grieves, the father empathizes, the mom is weirdly close with the son who — by any objective measure — is a total asshole. Son hangs out with total asshole who is — predictably — a total asshole to his sister and does the only decent thing in the movie for the entirety of his time on screen and protects said sister. Family relocates to escape the loss but not before realizing that the presence in said house is said son (and I imagine the cycle continues). Decent enough.",
