Good god. Listen I’m all for the idea of DIY, labor-of-love thrillers, so I stand behind the idea of this film existing. But rarely does a labor of love feel so poorly tended to by its team. From subpar acting to cliché dialogue inside a messy script full of plot devices that go nowhere, The Summoning fails to realize that tension isn’t assumed, it’s crafted.
I feel the summoning….of a nap.
This was not the worst thriller I have ever seen, but it was very flawed, and moves very slowly without being particularly intriguing (I don’t mind a slow burn if it is good). It begins with a rather interesting premise that is based on a true story – this could have been a really creepy movie. For starters, the lead actress was pretty bad. She showed so little emotion there were times she seemed mildly sedated. Secondly, they did not delve into the history of the theme – this could have been very creepy and had the makings of a great ghost story. Lastly, I found the ending unsatistying – not terrible, but an ending that many will see coming. Actually, I found the acting by Elbert Hill (the old maintenance man) to be superb, and I wish he had a larger role. Also, while Eric Roberts does not disappoint, his role was quite small. Four stars from me – had a great premise, but needed some tweaking, starting with the lead role.
