Plot: A scheming couple plot to conceal a hidden cache of stolen money from its rightful owner. The only problem is that the house they plan to hide it in is haunted.
My rating: 5/10
Will I watch it again? No.
I had higher hopes for this one for the cast alone. They do an OK job but you could easily make the case that everyone except for Hardy was just going by the numbers. The script doesn't light any fires so you could blame that, too. And then there's the direction or the overall bland vibe of the picture. It's borderline so slow that it's boring the pieces out of me. The ending was great but it's such a slog to get to that once you're there, you're glad it's almost over. Pass.
