Well traversed but aptly handled.
"Two orphaned children with a shrouded past are adopted by a middle aged working mom and a young stay at home dad who are not always on the same page. Excellent horror fare albeit with a not unfamiliar plot. Well acted and directed, with deftly maintained suspense and sufficiently unsettling ambiance...."
