Lots of screaming. Gets a little greasy and the spooky stuff is pretty front-loaded. The curse is grody so it ends up that the main character is effectively collateral damage. This the second killer hand movie and the second ghost baby movie that I’ve watched for Hooptober.
Worth a watch but not particularly great.
