Yesterday, I was still playing catch-up from my horror-filled
afternoon on Saturday. While I am still not done with that material, I decided
to watch and review one other movie before I get back to that. Last night, I sat
down and watched 6 Souls (AKA Shelter) from 2010.
Plot/ A female forensic psychiatrist discovers that all of
one of her patient's multiple personalities are murder victims. She will have
to find out what's happening before her time is finished.
Originally filmed for a 2010 release as the movie Shelter,
this is an interesting little flick. Yes, it is a bit disjointed as it starts
out as a supernatural thriller and then cascades into an almost Voodoo themed
affair. The acting is solid and does a great job building some atmosphere
through the movie, adding a few eerie moments within the confines of the
script. Honestly, there was a lot going on, almost too much. Some of the
effects were intriguing and really worked but it was just a touch too
predictable and unfortunately, there were a lot of holes in the layered story
that detracted from the overall feel. In
the end, it was an entertaining flick. Sure, it is not the best of its kind,
but there is something here to enjoy. Not to mention it was nice seeing Pittsburgh play a role in
another horror type flick.
