Okay I just bit the bullet and signed up for Shudder last night so I could watch this.

It was OK. Good concept and executed well for stretches, but I don't think it landed the ending.

This is about where I am on it. It was a very cool premise, and some of it was executed pretty well. But yeah the ending borderline sucked arse and got a little too jumbled for my liking. And I'm not sure there's ever been a more foreshadowed thing in movies than when Jack sets the dagger down on the little table between him and Lilly.

That being said, I did kinda like it though. And I thought the concept of it and the way it was shot was really cool. Definitely would recommend it to fans of the genre, but I'd caution to go in with a fairly low bar.

This would have been perfect for a V/H/S segment, and it wouldn't shock me if the original concept was for an anthology.

20-30 minutes of just a struggling late night show bringing on a demon. Strip away the conspiracy and dead wife and focus more on the success/fame more intensely.

OR

Go 120 minutes and actually explore the backstory they forced in, as well as characters like Gus (who turned real Christian randomly), and play it straight horror without the 2001 ending. Could have been the next Hereditary.
