Preview: The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008)

• Poster: D+; C

Review:

If you're going to put a poster together like this, at least put real blood/lipstick/paint on a real mirror and actually put the actress in front of it. It is painfully obvious and unimpressive.

It's a significant improvement over the first poster. It looks far more professional and is a bit more inventive in displaying the film's stars without seeming so stodgy.

• Trailer: C+

Review:

Improving upon the poster by a significant margin, the marketers know how to push this kind of film to mass audiences with a penchant for horror. While there is a bit too much Carrie in the picture for my taste, at least it looks a bit more intersting than Twilight does or Underworld did.

Oscar Prospects:

None
