García isn’t very good at building an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty and, therefore, the first half is the very derivative, sterile and ineffective cliché of how a group of characters gets stuck in a forest cabin or a Columbian haunted house. But the moment the cards are put on the table and something starts to happen, the film becomes quite fun. What holds its head above water are the technical aspect, the quality gore and, in particular, the fun idea that a body possessed by a demon can’t be killed because the demon would possess you.

According to what the film is about, I would expect some atmospheric spectacle, but unfortunately it did not happen. At times, the atmosphere is somewhat ruined by how the actors are directed and how the camera is guided. It feels like there is a lack of desire to shoot something truly horrifying, scary, and the creators simply settled for capturing scenes in the typical horror fashion. It's a shame because this film, especially this one, with its concept and storyline, deserves much more.
