A Haunting in Salem

About This Movie

A Haunting in Salem offers a rather chilling look at the intersection of history and the supernatural. The film's atmosphere is thick with dread, and it really harnesses the eerie vibes of Salem's storied past. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it builds tension effectively, particularly in the latter half. What stands out are the practical effects; they give a tangible feel to the hauntings that CGI often lacks. The performances, particularly from the sheriff as he grapples with his family's safety, carry a weight that adds to the story's depth. There’s something about the themes of generational curses and facing one’s history that lingers long after the credits roll. Not groundbreaking, but has a certain charm.
