annoying kids and scattered story telling

Abel Plenkov (Raul Esparza) suffers from mental illness and he turns into the serial killer Riverton Ripper who kills with his blade engraved with vengeance. He attacks his family and causes the ambulance to crash. He's assumed to be dead. Exactly 16 years later, the local teens have gathered. Local legend dictates that the Ripper could rise on the anniversary and one of the seven kids born on that day have to drive Ripper back into the river. The seven are blind Jerome (Denzel Whitaker),smart-mouthed Alex Dunkelman (John Magaro),Jay (Jeremy Chu),timid Bug (Max Thieriot),religious Penelope (Zena Grey) who predicts the coming evil, Brittany (Paulina Olszynski) whom Bug has a crush on, and brute jock Brandon (Nick Lashaway). Some believe that the Ripper is still alive and then the killings start. Fang (Emily Meade) is mean girls queen bee and turns out to be something more for Bug.

The story telling is too scattered especially in the first half. Bug is the lead and he needs to be in 90% of the movie. All the kids are annoying in some way. The horror story is lifeless. The villain isn't fearsome. The kills aren't gruesome enough. Nothing really stands out. The Fang reveal is pretty good but I never got invested in the characters. Their survival and even their deaths aren't compelling to me.

The Bottom of the Career of a Former Master of Horror

In Riverton, the mentally ill serial killer Abel Plenkov (Raúl Esparza) aka The Riverton Ripper has multiple personalities kills his pregnant wife Sarah (Alexandra Wilson). He calls his doctor and when Dr. Blake (Harris Yulin) arrives, Abel kills him and a police officer in front of their little daughter Leah. While going to the hospital, there is an accident and his body is never found. In the same night, there are seven births in one hour and people believe his soul will reincarnate in one of the seven children that are known as The Riverton Seven.

Sixteen years later, the ghost of the Riverton Ripper seems to have returned seeking revenge and the teenager Adam "Bug" Hellerman (Max Thieriot) has dreadful nightmares with the killer. The teenager Jay Chan (Jeremy Chu ) is murdered on the old railroad bridge. Then the students of the Riverton High School Penelope (Zena Grey); the bully Brandon (Nick Lashaway); and Brittany Cunningham (Paulina Olszynski) are murdered by the killer. When Bug and his sister Fang (Emily Meade) are attacked by the killer, Bug asks his friend Alex (John Magaro) if he is the killer or whether Abel Plenkov is alive and has returned to revenge.

The lame "My Soul to Take" is an awful horror movie by Wes Craven. This film is certainly the bottom of the career of the former master of horror, with a ridiculous story full of clichés and badly developed characters. The lines and the premise are so stupid that does not worth a long review in respect to the past of this writer and director. My vote is two.

Title (Brazil): "A Sétima Alma" ("The Seventh Soul")

JASON VS. MEAN GIRLS

The movie starts our with a guy talking to himself. He is both a killer and a good guy with multiple personalities. After killing his pregnant wife, he calls his shrink who notifies the police. He stabs himself to keep from killing. Then as he tries to kill his 3 year old daughter, the cops but 2 bullets in his chest. He dies, no wait, like Jason he comes back to life to kill some more and he takes another bullet. In the ambulance, he kills some more and his body goes into the river. Meanwhile 7 kids are born premature in that town on that same day. Ooooooh. AAAAAAAAAh. Flash ahead 16 years.

The seven diverse kids who were born that day have an annual celebration on their birthday at that spot on the river. They have a mock-up Ripper who each year one of them must kill or else the killer will kill them all. This year, Bug doesn't kill the mock-ripper as the cops break up the ritual. So guess what happens next?

The kids at school are bullied by a mean girl who dictates everyone's life. The movie is pretty good up until the killing spree starts. The problem is that the killer has no imagination. It is always with a knife. No gasoline power tools, no pitch forks, no paper clips. A Knife. The soundtrack also lacks during this time. It did play a good metal song once, but failed to keep up the tempo. The murders come in fast order before we really get to know any of the characters. The movie had potential to be the next Halloween Friday on Elm Street, but fell a little short.
