This exists to make INSIDIOUS look like a classic - Pay the Ghost review by AER
This lame ghost story is a rip-off of the Insidious films but it's not even a good attempt. This has a wet Nicolas Cage and Sarah Wayne Callies running around trying to find thier son who had been abducted on Halloween. Pay The Ghost are the last words he uttered before he vanished. The convoluted reason for the disappearance has Nic wandering around Toronto (standing in for NYC) and following up clues that make no sense and seem to have dropped in his lap out of nowhere. Clueless cops and academics show up to spout plot exposition and then makers just leave it to the soundtrack to the provide the jumpscare. The SFX are weak but aspects unnerve (like the flying crowd of children at the end). So there's nothing to look at - only Nicolas Cage completists or those who have forgotten his dog years and find this in charity shop (I'm in this category) will ever watch this. Lame.
