Rating: C+
Commentary: As much as I love Lili Taylor, this just isn’t that thrilling a design and when you’re trying to engage horror fans, you need to be a bit more frightening. 		Rating: B+ / B+
Commentary: The first trailer eliminates the paranormal investigator aspect of the film, focusing instead on the haunted house motif. While that would betray the film’s concept, it’s a generally tense teaser that provides a nice scare at the end. / If the first trailer doesn’t hook you, the second might. It has a few more jumps a thrills than the first and introduces the two main characters of the film along with its general concept. It works in establishing mood and also setting up the haunted house elements that will make it a success.
