I’ll admit that I have obsession for horror films, I would call this one more supernatural than horror. The main storyline is that Megan (main character) feels like she is being haunted by her dead sister. So of course she and her friend group go back to the place, where a year ago, her sister was still alive and happy.

The sister died by suicide, so if you have issues with your mental health, please be advised that this could possibly be triggering. However this is not the main plot of the movie.

A local gets involved in the friend group, telling them ghost stories from the area, giving the atmosphere a much more ghostly feel for the rest of the movie. Eventually the events from a year ago are unraveled and movie comes to a close.

Now that I have that all typed out this all feels a lot like the plot to I Know What You Did Last Summer, in more ways than one. Weird. I feel that I Know What You Did Last Summer did it better though. It’s on Netflix, if you watch it let me know if you agree with me or not.
