Devil's Tower (2014)

Devil's Tower
28 August 2021
Lead actress Roxanne Pallett (now Roxanne Carrion) spent the first part of her career acting in a soap opera that is less credible than this offering, and with a higher body count. When "Devil's Tower" was released she was a few months short of her 32nd birthday, yet she passed successfully for an 18 year old. This may be a tribute to her girlyish good looks or to the painting in her attic, but that is as good as this film gets.

We've all heard of haunted houses, but a haunted tower block? When Sarah is kicked out by her no-good widowed mother, she is dumped here by social services along with a host of undesirables and a couple of squatters. Then odd things start happening; actually they'd already started; the film opens with a young couple having sex on the rooftop who end up murdering each other. A lot more claret is set to flow, but zombies created and controlled by a mysterious entity through a TV set, seriously?

There is a half-hearted attempt to add some background, but this one fails big time. Comedy horror? Horror, but not in a viewable way.
