Kidnappers abduct the daughter of a wealthy diamond distributor in Cape Town. But when they have her locked up in their hideout and prepare to issue their ransom demands, they realise too late that she’s been possessed by a sinister and very powerful demon. A stylish supernatural suspense, directed with clear genre assurance and featuring a killer role by Australian scream queen Sharni Vinson, a past FrightFest guest with YOU’RE NEXT and PATRICK.

My quick rating - 5,0/10. I would've liked this movie a lot more if the director wasn't so focused on the snake like things protruding out of peoples mouths. Show it once, maybe twice for effect, not constantly like it is the only trick you have up your sleeve. That fascination with that was so distracting towards the end. Beyond that major flaw, this movie is quite good. The premise of attacking the wrong house tends to lead to some good topics in flicks, especially in horror. The oops, we tried to rob from a satanic cult type thing, although this one was the oops, kidnapped a woman for ransom that happens to already be possessed by a demon lol. This means little to me, but Australian scream queen, Sharni Vinson plays a role in this horror tale.
