Review: Laine refuses to accept that his friend would have its
own life. Debbie's
boyfriend Pete (Smith) is deeply saddened by the
suddenness of it all. Wool
decisions have a session after all the necessary protocols with the board and food and ropes on
his reluctant friend Trevor (Kagasoff), its gothic-chic
sister Sarah (Coto) and another friend, Isabelle (Santos).
They do this by now empty (his family out of town for a while) Debbie's house and almost immediately the planchette begins to explain things. Then everyone happy in broad daylight, with some worrying signs.
When one of them is intercepted as flossing, it becomes a race against time (paved new wool with his gang not to panic and now) right down to it before being killed to receive (I think final Destination) one to one. Mamie Laine also offers helpful tips on how to neutralize the evil forces behind them.
Director Stiles plays very safe with jumping alerts and there are lots of telegraphy. This only serves to dilute the impact of scenes that would otherwise have given some serious panic. The spirits also seem to have a penchant for turning on gas stoves. Unfortunately, there are also pieces of accidental humor that would never find in a horror film.
That said, Cooke could not prove that his role and he kept the laborious film to a stop. A scene where an elderly Laine (Shaye) met in a psychiatric hospital is certainly one of the best points. For a film about the dangers to mention the sinister ghosts, the film itself could have been more frightening.
