Summoned [HD]

The best are the performances...
Careful, Spoilers could be read.

The production was good, loved the photography in some scenes. If some one had took the risk to give more budget on the movie, the product would be much better. The plot is interesting and keeps your attention on the movie. The Director could keep us much more on the edge with a bit more of work, for example, he could develop more the chemistry between Michael and the artist and create an interesting back and forth, and create a bigger tension on the plot. My dissapoint was the end, it could be stronger and most exciting. The Director had all the elements to do a very powerful film and let it go. Maybe he focused on Directa Tv film, when he could be focused on Direct a great film.

Ashley Scott handled the role of Laura Price very well, she has a strong performance, Ashley let us see Laura through her and let us understand her world. Laura is a intelligent woman looking for answers, with determination, not needing to be rude. he is...

Has the feel of a made-for-TV movie but it's watchable & I have seen worse. Cuba barely in it so don't watch it for him. I say B
"Saw him again this afternoon. Seems to be stalking me wherever I go." Five years ago serial killer Simon Bourdias was found guilty of murder and sentenced to death. Now mysterious deaths are occurring to the members of the jury. Juror number 5 Laura Price (Scott) starts to investigate and begins to wonder if the deaths are a coincidence or something more mysterious then she ever imagined. I have to say that after the last Cuba Gooding movie I watched I was very worried that this one would be bad too. Not to spoil anything but he is in this for about 10 minutes. That said this movie was not that terrible. While it does have the feel of a made-for-TV movie it is watchable and I have seen much worse. The movie is a little slow at times and a little repetitive but it does keep you watching and interested all the way till the end. Overall, one of the better B-rate movies that I have seen in awhile. Nothing amazing but this is worth watching. I surprisingly give it a B.

Excellent Ghostly Crime Thriller
"Summoned" is by far the best new movie I have seen this year! I rarely give a movie 5 stars but this one earned every one of them. I have to tip my hat to Peter Sullivan who both wrote and directed this riveting thriller. The plot revolves around a series of seemingly accidental and suicide caused deaths to the jurors who handed down a guilty verdict in a lurid murder case dubbed "The Midnight Murder' case which begin occurring five years after the execution of a convicted murderer. The deaths are happenning to the former jurors in the order of their numbers on the jury panel beginning with the jury foreman who subsequently wrote a book about the trial which was critical of the police investigation. In each of the mysterious deaths the victims received messages which read "So many evils". Many of the vitims also saw apparitions of the sentenced man and felt his presence around them. Ashley Scott does a wonderful job as Juror number 5 whose time might be nearly up. She teams...
