It wanted to have this uncanny feel to it, but since they never truly committed to it, we’ve got a mediocre result.

What’s the plot? Two teens have to live with their grandparents for a short period of time, but why does the old couple keep acting bizarre? All we need to add is a strange hole in a wall and a few other random plot aspects like: cheerleading, bullying, harassment, ghosts, wormhole theory, revenge of the grandpa. Most of it felt like an unnecessary filler.

Speaking of the hole, every scene that presented what’s inside was just laughably bad. The effects and styling was just ridiculous. Realistically speaking, they should have never shown the viewers what’s in it, and create a spooky atmosphere around the feeling of the unknown.

The dialogues are probably the thing that annoyed me the most. Am I an idiot? Did they truly have to explain every little detail to me through them? It was not hard to figure out, so by the point the characters were discussing it, I as a viewer was already aware of the situation they were talking about…

For the acting, not exactly convincing. For the younger cast it seemed like a lack of skill. Not as easy to judge the older actors. Maybe it was hard to build a solid performance on a script like that?

Overall, way too long for a story like this. Some plotlines were not needed and did not bring much to the story at all. It had its moments, and I cannot say I dislike every minute of it, but these few scenes that were interesting were not worth watching the whole 2 hour movie.
