Spirit Trap (2005)
3/10
A Waste Of A Story Line

'Spirit Trap' This movie severely disappointed me. I felt it wasted a lot of time with stupid and pointless story lines. It was very unclear on which story line it was on, which were the main ones, which had nothing really to do with the movie and finally it was horribly acted.

The first story line that I thought lead nowhere and wasted the viewers time is the one about Nick and his late brother Sam. This story line did play a prominent part throughout the movie until the end when it just stopped. There was so solution or resolution. It just disappeared. I found this unfortunate as there was so much that could have been done with it. It could very easily have escalated into an exciting storyline and have contributed hugely to the main plot. Needless to say it did fit in with the overall theme of the movie.

I quickly became confused with the main plot because again, it was solved. There was no result. How was Tom a killer? We are left to imagine his history. Fair enough, we are told that drugs are involved but that is all. Although we are only left to our own devices for about half of the movie until he kills his girlfriend, Adele.

I thought that it was badly acted. I like Billie Piper and Sam Troughton but they did not perform well in this movie. They really disappointed me. I felt I was watching and amateur movie that was made as a college assignment or something to that effect.

Overall, I felt this movie was a waste of a storyline, a waste of actors, a waste of time and ultimately a waste of a film!!
