The Seance (2021)

My quick rating - 4,6/10. So far this very much feels like a stage play, not that is a bad thing. I'll ask one question without giving anything away, where was the neighbor from??? LOL. A youtuber (Miranda Skerman) that does her shows on debunking the supernatural decides to attend a seance at a supposed haunted house for her next fake show to prove to be nothing more than a lie. There have been plenty of these setups as of late in varying degrees of quality. This one really depends on the banter between our skeptic and Michael Minto who is the owner of the house and does the channeling of the spirits trapped within. Budget is really a non-factor since as I stated, it could easily play out on a stage since the other characters are only a part of this when needed and are quickly dismissed shortly after their appearance. The sarcasm between believer and non is quite amusing, at first. I say that since they do drag the whole quips at each other's beliefs way too far into the movie and it becomes tiresome. But the majority of this flick does a nice job being sufficiently creepy and subtle in its presentation of what is actually happening. It really isn't a bad indie horror flick that uses its psychology to keep you entertained but in the end, lets you down with a simplistic wrap up that I wasn't a fan of. I can't go further into what that is without giving any spoilers so it'll be up to you to check into it. I don't think you'll be disappointed if you do, you just may be left wanting a bit more to it. Again, plex users will need to visit requestrr since it wasn't collection-worthy.
