The Dark and the Wicked
Directed by Bryan Bertino
On a secluded farm, a man is bedridden and fighting through his final breaths while his wife slowly succumbs to overwhelming grief. Siblings Louise and Michael return home to help, but it doesn’t take long for them to see that something’s wrong with mom—something more than her heavy sorrow. Gradually, they begin to suffer a darkness similar to their mother’s, marked by waking nightmares and a growing sense that an evil entity is taking over their family. A SHUDDER EXCLUSIVE.
An evil entity takes over a family in this horrifying new tale from the director of The Strangers.
Cast: Marin Ireland, Michael Abbott Jr., Julie Oliver-Touchstone

Ok, creepy, but forgettable.
What a great film. Highly recommend
A film so forgettable I accidentally watched it twice.
An indie horror flick uses innovative and original twists in what initially seems like a generic narrative, elevating it beyond the usual genre tropes. The twists that drive this movies themes do require viewers attention throughout, but what seems often like a generic horror does, with that patience, become a rewarding shocker with a very fresh flair of originality.
Zzzzzzzzzzz watching paint dry is more exciting.
