Hokum

from Messed Up Movies · host Misfit Parade

Today Griffey, Heath and Sam go deep into Irish folklore to study the haunted offerings of Hokum, the latest spookhouse horror from Oddity filmmaker Damien Mc Carthy. A mixed bag of story threads that never fully pay off, creepy objects that provide arresting imagery and one amazing sequence in a hotel room that could be one of the scariest scenes of the year. We're evaluating this one from every angle, so go see the movie and come join us for this first movie in a very Messed Up May! Synopsis: A horror writer visits an Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes, unaware the property is said to be haunted by a witch.
