The Visitation...



The Visitation reveals a small town torn apart by supernatural events involving a mysterious stranger and his unsolved past.

I tried to watch this on Friday night.  But it starts off with a very sick dog at the vet... CLICK!  turned it off.  I wasn't going to try and go to sleep after watching a scary devil movie where there's a sick dog.  Nope.  not a chance in hell or on earth.  So i decided to watch it during the day to give it a chance.  If it was going in a direction (with the puppy) I couldn't handle, then I would just turn it off and wait for the next DVD to come in the mail.

so Sunday - Midday - with babies around me and the flipper close, I tried again.

the Visitation was Another one of those Christian / Fox Faith movies I came across.  It wasn't bad.  it isn't great, but if you like those supernatural -religiosy - thriller type movies like Prophecy, Fallen, End of Days... then you'd probably like this one.  I can't say I liked it, but I didn't hate it.  It was well done for a $2 million budget.  Pretty small budget for a movie.

Randy Travis is always a treat to see in a Movie... I expect him to start singing "Diggin' up Bones" any moment.

Oddest thing was watching Kelly Lynch share a scene with Don Swayze (Patrick's Brother).  Kinda spooky.  I kept waiting for her to say "I thought you'd be bigger."  guess you had to be there and well have "Road House" playing in your head too.

*side note*
The dog did die, but it was handled in a way that I could deal with and not be traumatized.  but I definitely glad I turned it off when I did and switched watching days though.

Review over.
