Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Chilling out at a rave club, six students (including heart-throb Absolom from TV soap EastEnders) seek their kicks with a ouija board. The fun turns sour when the message 'all die' is spelled out, and soon the pals are being eliminated (off screen) by an unstoppable demonic djinn. There are a couple of jolts along the way, but the clunky dialogue undermines any real chills and a lame FX-heavy climax makes no sense at all.Author: NY

- Posted on May 12 2009 16:40 I like this film as well. it got really bad reviews on rotten tomatoes. ok i saw it on the small screen, but i thought it was a bit like an english final destination. ok the deaths may not have been quite as well staged, but dont think it deserves the slating its got on other sites.
