Also who doesn&#8217;t love a creepy kid! Some of the best moments in Horror have come courtesy of a child character.<\/h3>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/coming-soon-the-possession-2012\/capture-15\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10815\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10815\" title=\"Capture\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Capture-e1343917732148.jpg?resize=500%2C456\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"456\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3>With Sam Raimi in the Procucers chair we can assume many things about the film but I&#8217;ve always felt that he has a few tricks left up his sleeve, \u00a0also I&#8217;ve always felt that Raimi&#8217;s home is in the Horror genre, he just needs to find his way again and we&#8217;ll see some great movies.\u00a0I was hoping to see that start here but upon hearing the news that the film was\u00a0severely edited to get a PG-13 rating it doesn&#8217;t sound like it but I will try and keep faith. The film stars\u00a0Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Who played\u00a0Edward Blake\/Comedian in &#8220;The Watchmen&#8221;), he&#8217;s always been a consistently great actor and I was very happy when I learned he had been cast.<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0To see the trailer for yourself just click on the video below (Although I will warn you it does give quite a-lot away):<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RY4MmrACpzA\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A young girl buys an antique box at a yard sale, unaware that inside the collectible lives a malicious ancient spirit.
