Looks dumb. That little girl is a terrible actress and Zellweger is hella annoying.
 
The synopsis sounds cool and the trailer looks okay, but I can't stand Zellweger.
 
Looks like complete crap!

...but I do love me some Renee...
 
Case 39 has been in production for the past 3 years. Instantly that's a red flag. Obviously the studio had problems with it and were not confident in this product to release it.


The trailer reminds me of every other lame Horror film released at least once a month, like The Uninvited, The Unborn, Haunting In Connecticut and Grudge 2. It revolves around someone or something being haunted, followed by random cheap ''scares'' that involve deformed people popping out of nowhere. Check these for for example.

And finally, Mr Potato Head from Case 39

The only thing this film has going for it is the star power of Renee Zellweger and Ian McShane. The writer of this film directed Pulse, another throw away Horror film, which holds 12% on Rotten Tomatoes.

In short, I except the same ol dribble from Case 39.
 
This premiered last week at the Berlin Fantasy Festival in Germany. Anyone saw it?
 
I saw the trailer for this when I saw Public Enemies and my friend said it looks like complete wank. I have to agree with him.
