The Taking of Deborah Logan
Directed by Adam Robitel
After months of searching, Mia Medina has found the perfect subject for her PhD thesis film on Alzheimer’s Disease. For the next several months, cameras will record the everyday life of mother Deborah Logan and her daughter Sarah. But as the days progress, they observe behaviors and occurrences that show the progression to be far more advanced than anyone was prepared for. What becomes apparent is that there’s something besides Alzheimer’s that has taken control of Deborah’s life. It’s an evil that is far worse than the debilitating disease with which she was first diagnosed.
A film crew documents a woman's struggle with Alzheimer's, only to discover something else at play.
Cast: Jill Larson, Anne Ramsay, Michelle Ang, Brett Gentile

not good at all
One of my favorite paranormal movies, mixing real life illness with supernatural possession was a great concept because it leaves you trying to decipher which one has a hold of her when she acts out. Amazing lead actress, this movie most likely would not have been this good without her. Turn the lights off and grab a snack, this movie will have you looking behind your shoulder.
This movie is so freakin scary. The end takes a bizarre left turn, however, that makes the whole thing ridiculous in a bad way. If not for the horrible ending, it would be 5 skulls all day.
it was alright
Great new concept mixing dementia/Alzheimer's with actual paranormal possession, great story-telling throughout and one of the creepiest night-vision scenes ever delivered.
