While this Blumhouse production may be a less ruthlessly efficient scream machine than, say, its corporate sibling "Ouija," it is much more atmospheric and benefits from a winning central performance from Snook. Read full review

There isn’t a single jump scare in this thing. On the other hand, it would be nice if Jessabelle tried a little harder. Read full review

It’s a strange spectacle: a horror film that spends as much time dismantling suspense as it does building it. Read full review

Steeped in Southern Gothic melodrama, Jessabelle is interesting in some of the small details, and in its strong sense of the Louisiana bayou atmosphere, and then it completely falls apart when it starts being a horror film. Read full review

An ineffective, derivative, and awkwardly executed mash-up of ghost flicks and voodoo movies. Read full review

Jessabelle is depressingly rote. Read full review

Nov 5, 2014

There are few scares here, but plenty of mild grossness. The absurd ending ties up the mystery in a way that’s sure to annoy both supernaturalists and realists. Read full review

One of the nice things about Jessabelle is that it isn't trying too hard.

This movie was pretty good. If you watch too many times, you will probably hate it. But it's a pretty good film, and I really like Sarah Snook in the film, she did a great job. Not my favorite Blumhouse film, but it's worth watching. Who knows, you might love it! ;)

It is a film about a young woman whose past haunts. Jessabelle is not a new concept, but it has some scary vibes going on. It is the perfect movie for a Friday night.

This movie is not very good. It has its moments, especially in the first few minutes, but ultimately, it's a horror movie looking for a good scare...which it doesn't really have. It's only saving grace is Sarah Snook, who give a fairly solid performance although it's not at the same levelThis movie is not very good. It has its moments, especially in the first few minutes, but ultimately, it's a horror movie looking for a good scare...which it doesn't really have. It's only saving grace is Sarah Snook, who give a fairly solid performance although it's not at the same level as her one in "Predestination", in which she was excellent. But, I think she's an actress to watch and may end getting some strong award buzz in the future.… Expand
