It was like they couldn't decide between making a ghost story or a racial terror movie. Either one would have worked but together it's convoluted. The way it's shot, the special effects & acting are truly excellent but there were several scenes that didn't contribute to the storyline. The characters are cliche & the conclusion is anti-climactic with a lot of unanswered questions & a disappointing attempt to tie it all together with "Satan has it in for black families."
