Takes ages to get going. Quite gory and un-necessary. Tries to be clever but this results in cheese-ball cliché lines. My take: at the point that the mother wakes following the crash both her, the cop and her daughter are dead. The whole film is set in effectively "purgatory" where the townspeople wait to be judged for their actions as witch-hunters.
The mother and cop follow all sorts of clues and for some reason "the darkness" wants to kill them despite the fact that they are ultimately useful to the "demon". The demon (a young girl possessed to carry out the revenge of Alicia, a young girl in the town accused of being a witch who was to be burnt to death. She survived and ultimately sought revenge with the assistance of the demon) could have explained the situation initially and offered an ultimatum from the word go and reduced the film's length by an hour. There was no need to follow clues.
At the end of the film the cop is burnt alive and the mother and daughter return home, still both dead, and haunt the father/husband.
Absolute garbage. Some of the filming and effects were impressive. The storyline is really really bad!
