Hong Kong filmmakers, the Pang brothers, go Americana with a derivative haunted farmhouse tale. The Solomon family moves onto a dilapidated North Dakota farm (the previous owners were slaughtered) in a last-ditch effort to forestall personal and economic ruin. No one believes sullen teenager Jess (Stewart), who thinks the place has some bad juju, and only toddler Ben (the Turner twins) can see the ghosts skittering around. Dull rather than ominous.
There is evidence to suggest that children are highly susceptible to paranormal phenomena. They see what adults cannot. They believe what adults deny. And they are trying to warn us.
