Ignoring its uneven pacing, Pyewacket is a dark, angst riddled treat for horror fans with some solid scares, decent effects and a poignant finale to boot.

A really good movie with some sustained moments of suspense and few, if any, stupid jump scares. Nicole Munoz is great as the angry daughter who's Mom finally pushes her to the edge, which in this case is performing an occult ritual in the woods. If you don't like having to fill in some blanks on your own, you won't like this film. Question marks abound, like what actually happened to Leah's friend Janice? What exactly transpired at the end of the film? There isn't much in the way of gore here thankfully, but it's quite suspenseful. The thing that comes out of the woods is seldom seen, but when it is, it's extremely effective.

A slow-burn horror that doesn't quite burn enough.

Before I get started let me just say that angst and anger are not the same thing. I have read so many reviews that have described the character of Leah as angst-ridden. Angst is fear or anxiety, often about the future, it is not the same thing More
