Entity (2012)


Years ago, thirty four bodies were found in Russia and no one knows what happened. Russian Yuri takes a film crew and a psychic to the field where the bodies where found to investigate.  When they find the location, the psychic impresses everyone by asking what the building past the woods is. The building isn’t visible so they feel like they’ve done well in the psychic department.

It’s an abandoned prison which still has electricity, and is free from dust, dirt and cobwebs.  So is this place really abandoned or is it just poor filmmaking?  Our psychic quickly finds a spirit in one of the cells. She can hear the spirit talk, but it’s in Russian. So she asks questions and has the Russian interpret what she says for the spirit. On the surface it’s impressive, but the one flaw is that if the ghost answers only the non-Russian speaking psychic can hear her.  So she’s not going to get any information from that ghost.

Yuri seems to have knowledge of the prison, which makes one wonder why he’s asking them to invesigate. Then David disappears.  I have no idea who David is, uhhh absolutely no idea.  So either I’m not paying enough attention or he’s too boring to remember.

As usual, when people find spirits in abandoned prisons when there have been bodies found nearby, things go horribly wrong. It’s another middle of the road found footage movie. Nothing that interesting, but not the worst thing you’ll ever see either.
