The girl's father teams with his ex-wife to find a way to end the curse upon their child.Brilliant 'ancient evil' style movie that sucks you into a storyline that you leave wondering, is that, could that be based on something real? Also one of the movies where everyone gets involved, not just the child or wife etc.
- DirectorJames WanStarsPatrick WilsonRose ByrneTy SimpkinsA family looks to prevent evil spirits from trapping their comatose child in a realm called The Further.Downright refreshing for creepiness, shock value and a developing storyline with a modern twist.
