Plots(1)
Teenager Lisa Johnson (Abigail Breslin) and her family died in 1986 under sinister circumstances but remain trapped in their house. Unable to move on and tormented by their killer, they must live out their last living day over and over again. Lisa soon discovers that she is trapped in limbo and must fight to free her family from their prison. Over a period of six 'days', Lisa must reach out from beyond the grave to help her present-day living counterpart, Olivia, avoid the same fate Lisa and her family have suffered. (StudioCanal UK)

A pretty well exploited idea (Groundhog Day meets The Others meets Insidious 2) delivered in a very uninteresting manner. I can imagine that a movie with this premise could be atmospheric, terrifying, psychedelic, unpredictable and surprising – ideally all together. Haunter unfortunately is none of that, it’s a non-conflicting, run-of-the-mill genre flick that will not make you regret having spent those 97 minutes of your time, but you won’t want to do it again. It is watchable, despite the presence of the unlikeable Abigail Breslin in the main role, and the occasional chaos (and I’d rather not think too much about the rules of that world).

Haunter isn't an exceptional horror film, but if every horror film were made at least this well, the whole genre would be on a completely different level. Yes, at times it's a bit overdone and it gets a bit tangled up unnecessarily because the film works well and holds the viewer's attention. As a result, you get to watch something that will entertain you and that horror fans will enjoy, because it can definitely give you chills now and then.
