SPIRIT TRAP
Damn you Netflix!
PLOT
A college student gets a notice in the mail that her school found her housing in an old building off-campus and she arrives to find that four other students got the same letter. On their first night in the house, they find an old clock and one of the girls tells a story about her grandmother telling her that a clock like that was known as a spirit trap. As the kids start getting close to each other, weird things start happening and they all seem to revolve around that clock. Hidden secrets are revealed and it becomes apparent that no one can trust their new roommates.
TRIVIA
The film was set in London, but filmed in Romania.
THOUGHTS
Surprisingly enough, Spirit Trap wasn’t that bad of a movie and it even had a few good parts. I went into it expecting the same crappy straight to DVD horror movie I’ve seen a million times and ended up being pleasantly surprised. I think part of it is because I wasn’t expecting a foreign horror movie when it started playing, which should teach me to read the back of the box or description a little more closely. I will say that the ending felt a little lame and tacked on, but the rest of the movie made up for it.
Yea, it’s available streaming on Netflix. I might give it a look. Judging by the way the weather looks around Dayton, tonight might be a good night.
My boyfriend and I stayed in tonight and watched horror movies, which thrilled him a little less than me lol. Here in Franklin we pretty much have the same weather
