Haunt

Watchable coming-of-age horror with a wealth of dropped plot points.

Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole.

34/100

One family moves into a house where another family was slaughtered. They throw in a talk-to-the-dead radio to try and make it more interesting but was ultimately unnecessary. Even the watchable growing relationship with the eldest son and the girl next door couldn't save this ponderously slow, frustrating story that had to throw in something spooky once in a while just to remind us it's a horror movie. And making us really care about the characters just made the ending that much more depressing. What a dud! -- DrNostromo.com
