★ 4/10 • Mar 16, 2019

Does it's thing pretty fine, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan is perfectly capable, but God I am so over this exact formula cropping up in the genre over and over and over. _The Possession_ doesn't have a single thing that makes it noteworthy. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._
