My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Intruders (2011)

Clive Owens stars in this inventive Bogey man-type story about a demon named Hallowface. Two story lines tell the tale of Hallowface, one about a mother worried that her son’s possessed and the other is about a father (Owens) trying to protect his daughter who seems to have conjured Hallowface from her imagination. There are some frightening moments and a lot of great imagery at work here. Director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo does a fine job sustaining the mystery until the end and the result is a satisfying conclusion to a psycho-mystical horror film. Grade: B+
