The Pact
After their mother passes away, sisters Nicole and Annie reluctantly return to their childhood home to pay their last respects. While staying overnight in the house, the sisters sense a mysterious presence in their midst: noises startling them in the night, objects moving about, a fallen picture of an unknown woman posed next to their mother. Annie begins experiencing a series of intense and disturbing dreams - visions that lead her to uncover something terrible about her mother's past that is finally revealing itself.

I wanted to but couldn't!
It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This ultra low budget film turned out to be a very freaky and very well made demonic/haunting mystery thriller, with some genuinely frightening scenes. The film has an incredible amount of detail given the low budget. The acting was very good and the film continuously had a haunting feel to it, with the focus being a cupboard down the hall. It was interesting as Annie (Caity Lotz) investigated the mystery herself, as the police did not believe her and thought she had something to do with her sister's disappearance. She discovers her mother had a brother, who she didn't know about, and that the brother might be the serial killer Judas, who is still haunting the house.The film doesn't really give closure as to what happened to her sister, but given the other characters' fate, we can only assume she suffered the same fate. I can't really connect the film's title to anything in the film, though, so not sure why it is called 'The Pact'.
Another low budget film that delivers! Great cast and story. I actually watched it because I wanted to see what Casper was doing in a horror movie, a handsome Hollywood B actor who has been relegated to mainly weak films. This might be one of his best roles! I got to make this comment as well..one thing that makes this film work so good is the house they used for the set.. just perfect. Caty Lotz was stellar as the lead give this movie a chance and avoid all of the bad reviews. This film is scarier than the recent batch of Blumhouse "big" productions!
With a name like The Pact I'm thinking "The Craft", "The Covenant", "Witches of Eastwick", et al. Gratefully, "The Pact" was nothing like any of those."The Pact" is a blend of mystery and paranormal. You could say that most paranormal movies are like that because we have to find out what or who is causing the weird events. That is true for this movie as well as Annie Barlow (Caity Lotz) tries to find out how all these supernatural events are occurring and why important women in her life are coming up missing. In "The Pact" Annie not only has to find out who is behind all of these poltergeist actions, but what is this entity trying to tell her.I liked the movie. They accurately pin down the art of spooky and intrigue. The movie transitions from scare mode to detective mode throughout as Annie tries to solve this mystery. The story is good and so was the overall flow of the movie.
Wow what a bad movie! Such an unprofessional production. For example: you hear a baby crying from inside the house. And you ask yourself - a baby? where is there a baby? and then you realize it's supposed to be the 4 year old girl crying. They think a 4 year old girl sounds like a one year old baby when she cries.The movie is so slow in unimportant parts, and so uninteresting nor scary on the other parts. What is "the pact" that the movie is named after? they never say, you can only guess. What happened to the missing characters? Who knows. This was such a time waste.
