Excellent adaptation.

Best movie of this year hands down!

best movie i've ever seen.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

I didn't expect this to be the best horror movie of the year when I started watching it, but it turned out to be far worse than I had ever thought possible. There wasn't even a cheap jump scare at any point to set the mood.It started off all right. I thought the Laura Love's last moments before she put the gun to her head were done well, and I thought her friend's anguish at learning that she may have killed herself was rather moving; but it quickly went downhill from there.Like, straight down.When Lindsay Parker made her appearance, I checked to see if I was still watching the same movie, because it seemed so utterly removed from the preceding events. I decided after a quarter of an hour that Lindsay Parker was the actual protagonist of the movie. It was incomprehensible, because her paper-thin characterization was showing no signs of becoming other than paper-thin.Lindsay's the new boss of a "Corporation" that people tie themselves into knots to avoid naming. Always "the Corporation", "our company", "We want to be number 1 in the industry". What company? What industry?The acting and plot overall were so bad and unconvincing that this review would run into the length of the movie if I gave examples to illustrate my point. Let me list a few, at any rate:1. The scene where Lindsay's boss says, "I couldn't help overhearing (that you were looking for a house)," and hooks Lindsay up with the realtor managing Laura's house. The house in question happens to satisfy exactly the criteria Lindsay was looking for, and she puts down a deposit on the same day and moves in.2. Lindsay's running commentary to herself. Yes, the audience can see that the diary that she threw out twice has reappeared on her nightstand, and we can see that she's upset without the need for her to say these things out loud.3. Her unwillingness to leave the house that she moved into just a couple of days ago when the hauntings begin in earnest.4. When her secretary suggests she invite a few people over for a housewarming party and include the three gossipy break-room employees (unfunny comic relief) among her guests, Lindsay says, "Who cares if the ghost eats them?" Really?5. Her walking up to the three break-room employees after the housewarming party (at which weird things did happen) and saying, in paraphrase, "If you thought THAT was bad, wait until you hear what happened next. There was blood on the wall..." She hardly knew them. That's now how you start off a conversation with your coworkers.6. She was willing to accept that her house was haunted after the first draught of cold air passed her, but heaped scorn on the suggestion that she hire a psychic to check the place out. Right, because THAT'S crazy.7. The fact that, despite being a protagonist, we learn LITERALLY NOTHING more about her over the course of the movie than we knew when she made her first appearance. Nothing about her past, no love interest, nothing.8. And, of course, the ending, where she accepts Jesus into her heart, destroys the spirit, and moves her "company" up to Number 1 in "the industry" - all in one fell swoop.Paper-thin plot, paper-thin characters, more loose ends than you can count.If I could give this movie a 0, I would.

At the moment of this review, I'm shocked that this movie even received a 4.4 This movie is an absolute 2 at best. The acting was the worse thing possible about this movie. Second would be the production quality followed by the story. Between the video quality and the acting, it's just like an amateur, poorly made college short that went horribly wrong. That's not just my opinion, it's a fact. As a film reviewer, this movie does exude all of the classic and most basic mistakes in film-making that real directors do not miss. This is why it holds such an amateur presence. The title describes exactly how everyone should view it, as an Unwanted Presence.

The Plot.Lindsay Parker (Sherry Morris) is trying to move on with her life...a new job, a new town and a new home. However her new home has come with an Unwanted Presence. Gripped by the fear of this evil spirit she exhausts all the ghost hunters, spiritualists and charlatans she can locate. When all seems lost she turns to a couple recommended by her secretary as having experience in these situations.Desperate to rid her life of this unnatural spirit and not wanting to lose her home to the Presence that walks the halls, Lindsay contacts Dr. Paul and Claire. Armed with the Truth and the spirit of victory they triumph over evil. Showing Lindsay that fear leads to bondage but truth and faith can bring deliverance.OMG! This movie could easily have been made by Ed Wood. The worst acting the worst dialog horrible dialog.And suddenly in the last 10 minutes it becomes a faith based movie. I laughed through the entire film! Check it out for yourself.

Me & my wife watches this together It was suspenseful . The thing that got us the most was to be having tears watching a " horror" movie if you will. Near the end when the people who came in to cast out the evil spirit were talking to main actress we both felt the holy spirit and realized that this wasn't just any movie but that there was an anointing on it we believe cause there are a lot people looking for Answers to this kind of problem & we believe God used this video to let them know it's him they need him he is the answer & this is well portrayed .More please !
