It was OK, but a little light on quality and depth of story. The main house and setting was beautiful.
The "voice" was too electronic and "modern" to evoke any transcendent ancient terror.
The premise was not entirely unoriginal, and my favourite phrase from the movie: "shameful urges".
Love Rebeca Hall, though she was even better in Awakening.
It's not a movie I would ever watch again, after having seen it, unlike any M. Knight Shayamalan film, that I would watch again and again (even after I know the story), because they are so well written and more evoke deep consideration than thin frights.
Devil by Shayamalan is one of my favourites of his.
Another scarier (like jump out of your seat) movie was Lady in Black.
