Nothing new or really interesting here. I won't rehash the plot, but I'll say I got tired of watching it. I understand that it's part of the plot, but no one ever questions why all these things start happening when a person arrives in their lives. It's very rare this isn't the case, but the majority of these films have people die before they wake up. The father was the most gullible and as a doctor, I'm sure he had to have even a basic understanding of psychology.
I realize we all watch these knowing what we're in for, but this movie would have been a change of pace had Sam just been waging psychological and emotional warfare on the family...only to have her worldview shattered by the knowledge that her mom kept her from her dad and his family. Without the body count, she could have had a final breakdown and they could have shown the family trying to heal from everything, Sam included, in therapy sessions or something. I just find myself wondering why these villains always have to kill. Nothing here justifies it to me.
Then the ending..is she dead? In a hospital? Prison? Completely abrupt ending.
Give it a watch if you want to, but I did quit half way through to get to the end.
