video review : Case 39

video review : Case 39

From the looks of it, Lily is an adorable little girl. She’s perfectly cute in an odd-eyed space alien sort of way. It’s the high probability that she’s being neglected and possibly abused by her wacked-out parents that puts CPS worker Emily Jenkins into her life. But what starts as a psychological case study gets really eerie really quickly.

The way the movie switches to supernatural horror is actually quite jarring. And not in a good way. The tone is all over the place. So by the time demonic insects start flying out of a guy’s ears, you already know you’re watching something silly. But I like both Lily and Emily. It’s those two characters alone make the movie worth watching.

my rating : 3 of 5
