CATHY'S CURSE
No, not her first period, you perverts
Oh boy. The opening credits show the title twice, just in case we missed it and have no idea what movie we've wasted our money on.
A family of three moves into a new house and all suck breaks loose when the little girl picks up a dusty old doll. This kid somehow manages to get uglier as the movie goes on, although I don't think that was intentional. The mother is ridiculously stupid. She's looking right at the kid, scolding her, when the little monster literally disappears. But Mom keeps right on talking for about three seconds before noticing that there's nobody there. I'm surprised I noticed it, actually - most of the time, it was awfully hard to keep my eyes on the screen.
Long, drawn-out, boring, made with complete indifference by everybody involved...what good is there to say about this? It's not like there wasn't anything I enjoyed here. I liked a brief time-lapse shot of a plateful of food going bad (in about five seconds, with maggots n' everything) just before the little shit brings it up to her mom. I liked one scene involving snakes, because snakes give me the willies. And I even kinda liked the climax, which features the shattering of every shatterable object in the house. But man, these can't save a turd like this.
Canadian, in the lamest sense of the word.
