Featured review
I don't like it when a movie tries....
to act like it deals with the supernatural when it really doesn't. Detective Megan Paige becomes obsessed with a child murder. The girl's initials are the same letter and her body is left in a town that starts with the same letter. During investigations, she sees the dead girl, sees hands appear, hears whispers. She is diagnosed as schizo and is relegated to a desk job. The movie says it is based on a true story. The movie tries to depict Megan was haunted by ghosts. So, was this detective really schizo in real life? A couple of years go by, and a couple more murders take place. She is allowed to tag alone but not interfere due to her mental state. Wouldn't want evidence thrown out. That part was ridiculous to me. There is no way the police would allow a mental case who was obsessed with this killer interview witnesses. She starts seeing the dead girls and hears things again. Another silly moment is when the police don't stop her from entering this house during a hostage situation. All they do is yell don't go in there, she just walks right in. Simply not believable.
Then according to the film, she finds out who the killer was but gets sent back to the psych ward and medicated so she can't tell anyone. Now, you know that never happened. The worst part about this movie is it trying to claim it's based on true events.
FINAL VERDICT: This would have been better as a ghost story and not played as based on actual events.
