Sam Raimi co-writes and directs this supernatural horror. Ambitious young bank loan officer Christine Brown (Alison Lohman) is approached by a mysterious old woman, Mrs Ganush (Lorna Raver), asking for an increase on her mortgage. In order to safeguard her promotion prospects and impress her boss, Christine denies her the loan. In retaliation, the old woman places a powerful curse on Christine, turning her life into a living hell. Haunted by an evil spirit and misunderstood by her sceptical boyfriend (Justin Long), she seeks the aid of psychic Rham Jas (Dileep Rao) to save her soul from eternal damnation. As evil forces close in, Christine must now face the unthinkable in order to break free of the curse. (Lionsgate UK)
